How much more time would be wasted if the individuals actually got in a car / plane / train (delete as appropriate) and attended the meeting in person? And how much more would that cost? I think the 15 minutes wasted is a drop in the ocean compared to the hours or days (it may require an overnight stay if sufficiently far away) to attend in person.
Very mis-leading.

Jim Beam makes bourbon, but it seems that the distillery is looking to make the jump into the tech industry with the release of its new product Jim, a “smart” decanter. But instead of telling you the weather or setting alarms, Jim pours whiskey. And already it's better than Siri

Scientists, educators and engineers not only use programming languages to build software systems, but also in interactive workflows, using the tools available to explore a problem and reason about it. Because sometimes you just gotta scribble down a little C++?

IT was once viewed as a back-office function, filled with disgruntled, reserved workers, but the view of the IT role and worker is changing, and it's showing in IT job satisfaction levels. "So happy together"

'Break up Google and Facebook if you ever want innovation again' I think I may have seen this movie before

So that explains why I've been struggling to innovate at my job. It's worse than that! The other day I couldn't decide what to make for dinner--damn Google and Facebook.
