Seems to me it may have some limitations, but it's becoming very widely used.supertasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02439938684828511155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3623132.post-44702136274760965622009-01-01T05:14:00.000+05:302009-01-01T05:14:00.000+05:30We are assuming here that consensus driven , "lets...We are assuming here that consensus driven , "lets all arrive at a point" is always a synchronous process and you just can't reach the point asynchronously. <BR/><BR/>This defies the basic and primary benefit of networked world for collaboration. Most of parts in decision making can happen asynchronously and there is always a very small portion ,when all stake-holders need to be present online for face-to-face discussion. <BR/><BR/>Hope this clarifies our approach.Santosh Salihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14529967342019953019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3623132.post-30502866787771392632008-12-31T00:58:00.000+05:302008-12-31T00:58:00.000+05:30how do you do business with 3 continents in the sa...how do you do business with 3 continents in the same week, especially when each of the interactions cannot justify the cost of travel? Can travel be sustainable either? The key seems to be building relationships in person to the level where it can be sustained via telecons - I seem to be doing OK not having seen my boss in over 3 months.krishnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03344973361486367786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3623132.post-10819490954355842252008-12-30T19:13:00.000+05:302008-12-30T19:13:00.000+05:30Good article.

There is little chance that a Telecon/VideoCon between the USA/India/Singapore is not going to affect someones evening. It's just modern business and a given that it is going to happen.<BR/><BR/>The real change that can be mended is the accessibility. There is no reason to have to drive to a videoconference facility, or to only have 5 people allowed on the call. Desktop video conferencing is here, and it works.<BR/><BR/>At Great America Networks Conferencing we offer QuickVisuals which is able to be used cross platform, just about anywhere you can get an Internet connection. This makes a 1 hour meeting, only take 1 hour.
