Old vs New Telecommuting (Score 1)

It seems from the discussions that 'telecommuting' consists of connecting to some computer at work from home - just like at work but without any real existence. However, this is very obsolete methodology; think of WebEx or Xerox Rooms, or similar technology. With these, and with better versions of the same, telecommuters should be even MORE present than if already there. Having to walk around to find someone is very inefficient, and each worker is much 'hidden' behind a door or cubicle wall. This is not very 21-st century!
