If you are just looking for a way to get your inter-office staff to
communicate, I would recommend a Jabber server over an IRC-style network.
You can then have an instant-message program like Gaim or Psi connect to it
(Windows and BSD versions both available) people can easily message each
other.  You can also join chat rooms when you need to conference.
