| Thanks for the insight, but still, donīt you say video conference? So, I thought it would be more logical to do the same for a conference that is done via phone and thus say call conference...we also have a press conference...so ..besides that, there are some business people who do say a call conference, while others say itīs the other way round, and thatīs why Iīve decided to post it here..Letīs see if we get another opinion on this one... |

| Both are used, but it seems that 'conference call' is much more common (17,900,000 against 323,000 in Google). |
