ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Synchronous conferencing

Synchronous conferencing is a way for people to talk together at the same time even if they’re in different places. It's like having a meeting with people all around the world at the same time. To do this, all the people who are involved in the meeting will join a special website or app that allows them to talk to each other as if they were in the same room. It's like being in the same room with your friends but they can be hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
