So, this conversation came up in Skype while I was asleep. For which I am kicking myself that I missed it. 
 Anyway. The discussion of maybe wanting to possibly consider putting together an online tabletop game. So, I wanted to throw this out there:
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/
I've used it. It's pretty cool. In fact, I should still have my campaign ready to go for that if anyone wants me to run. The only problem is that it does cost money. It's $24 for the lite license (players only) and $40 for the full license (DMs and players). I already have the full license for myself and 2 lite licenses for players, but we'd probably want more.
There's also this:Â http://www.rpgobjects.com/index.php?c=orpg
OpenRPG has it's advantages and disadvantages over Fantasy Grounds. It doesn't have as many features. And sometimes it can be glitchy to make work. But it's free. And it's less work to set up by the GM.
Lastly there's this:Â http://www.d20source.com/2012/05/tableto...gaming-app
We had a few issues with Tabletop Forge the last time we used it, but then we were having issues with all the programs. I think we decided this one was the best for our purposes and it was a long time ago, so I bet they added some cool functionality since then. The advantage to this is that most of us have used google hangout before and it's free. I'd probably suggest this over ORPG because it has more functionality, but then I haven't played ORPG in years (and I mean... about 10 years), so it's possible ORPG has put its big boy pants on since then.
I've used all three, and would be willing to run a little D&D game on either (3.5 or 4.0). Or I could help someone else get it set up if they want to run. Then, of course, we'd add mumble or something like that. So, what do you guys say? Anyone interested?
Update!
It looks like TableTop forge has disappeared. But there is this:

I'll do some more research on this program, but the first word I saw was "free", so there is that! LOL
