Google Hangout has been relatively stable for me (eg., 12-person meetings w/ everyone having a separate webcam presence). I suppose it depends on how many people you expect to be on the call, whether or not they need a video/audio representation of themselves (versus just a stream of the main speakers), etc.

The American Communication Association, http://americancomm.org/, is thinking of doing an online conference in Second Life. I have been to meetings in Second Life and found the experience to be superior to video conferencing and other alternatives for getting people together.
I would be interested to know what others have tried for online conferences and especially about any experiences with conferences in Second Life.
thank you,
