This item surfaced today--a famous Stanford Professor Philip Zimbardo decided to offer office hours via Facebook. Here's his opening, along with ground rules: http://www.facebook.com/stanford
To be able to ask questions, a person needs to be a fan of the Stanford Facebook Page (more controlled access than the usual Facebook account). It appears the prof then creates a video response.
You have to admit, he's pretty engaging, though taking a week to answer questions seemed like a long time.
Another choice we have at CMC is holding online office hours or appointments with Elluminate Live!, either recording a one-way talk as he is doing, or having the real, live two- or more- way conversation in the Elluminate Live! room.
