How to record desktop phone audio

I am often participating in LiveMeetings where a group of from 2 to 10 people are watching a share desktop - usually we are doing demonstrations/walktrhoughs through some application UX. Because these meetings occur across continents the participants are often in their homes using their home PCs.

"It's too bad you can't use a cellphone for this as bluetooth would be the solution to your problem.

This website sells adapters that you connect somewhere along the phone line and they connect to your computer. You can then record the audio from the phone calls.

The third solution I can think of would be Google Voice. If you have it, or can somehow get an invite. Just use your Google Voice number during these conferences. That way you can still use the same phone and be able to record the whole conversation. I think you have to press ""2"" to start recording on Google Voice but you can easily look that up. Then when the conversation is over, all you have to do is go online to voice.google.com and the whole conversation will be right there, ready for you to download as an mp3 or whatever format. You can then easily combine the video and the audio.

Personally I would use bluetooth as it is the easiest and you can use it as an audio source on Camtasia. But if I didn't have a cellphone to use, I would definitely be taking advantage of Google Voice, especially since it's free."
