Links to tools I recommend:

Collaboration Tools

Google Hangouts – This is a collaboration tool that I use to record VI Shots Live.
JoinMe – Lightweight meeting tool. Also has a web interface.
GoToMeeting – Highly recommended meeting tool. They also have GoToWebinar, which I've used many times for webinars.
Skype – Audio & Video over the Web. This is the main tool I use here at VI Shots for my interviews.

Remote Control & Support

TeamViewer – Powerful remote control software. This is expensive but it allows for unlimited hosts with one client.
LogMeIn – Remote Control software. This is a lower cost but you pay depending on the number of computers you control.
