I took part in a video meeting yesterday that was simply amazing. No picture delays, everything was in sync. It was not my first video conference but this provider's product was top notch. Technology has certainly come a long way since my first virtual meeting about 5 years or so ago.

Each participant was in their own home or office, not in a corporate meeting room especially designed for video. A webcam, microphone, speakers, fast internet and software was all that was needed at each site. Any decent laptop has the hardware built in but the app was cloud based. There were six participants in all and everyone followed proper etiquette so no one was being talked over. It was a really pleasant experience which makes me wonder if business travel will eventually be obsolete. What will happen to sales reps like me who tend to sell best face to face?
