Abstract

This paper presents aspects of a nine year research activity into the use of low-cost, low-bandwidth Information and Communications Technology (ICT) to support online meetings between farmers and scientists in rural Australia. It discusses the use of Microsoft NetMeeting™ (NM) to support these meetings, and describes the social and technical conditions under which these tools are likely to be useful and used.
