I think teleconferencing is an amazing invention and piece of technology. It benefits everyone. I just use it for my personal benefit, but I love it because I can talk to my friends who are far away at college that I only see a few times a year. I don’t really think it is intrusive because you can choose to use it, but it is really beneficial especially if I need advice on outfits, which my best friend and I sometimes do on iChat. I have always known that video conferencing was going to become a big thing, and I think that it’s an easy, fun way to chat with someone far away and also feel like you are in the same room with them. There are, of course, times when I don’t want anyone to see me on video, but I just don’t use it then; I use a phone. Otherwise, I think it is great, efficient, and fun to chat over video.
