Our conversation centered on whether or not companies should limit their employees’ use of the internet and social media while at work. Now I have a conversation starter when I speak to someone at the Target Center about bringing us in for their next big IT project. ASL, by definition, can happen anytime, anywhere.

The average person on a project team has worked with other people on his or her team for years, yet many probably can’t describe what their teammates look like.

For example, Meebo is more dedicated to chat, but there’s more overhead to get hooked up (it connects all IM channels, but you’d have to be on IM). I think chat has some great affordances, as you don’t have to take turns, there can be parallel conversations going, and it doesn’t take a lot of bandwidth.
