I totally agree.
There is a lack of understanding that a meeting permits an interaction
between multiple parties. It is the real-time interaction that is
important, not the meeting. If you need rapid interpersonal interaction
for information gathering or sharing - hold a meeting. Otherwise use
some other mechanism.
Telephone conferencing can do this quite well, video conferencing adds
very little.
IMHO.
