this is a website I found that contains virtual conferences and shows us how the world is changing.

this talks about how virtual events are becoming something bigger

This talks about virtualizing

this is a description of virtual worlds and how they are mostly used in Second Life

This talks about business evolution from phone conferences to virtual communication

The talks about Globalization and how buisness is evolutionizing because of it

This talks about how buisness are meeting virtually instead of face to face

"Business communication involves any kind of communication that foster strong partnerships, promote products or services, as well as relay information within a particular organization. It is imperative therefore that communications should be done clearly, efficiently, and accurately because it can have a great impact on a company's reputation and credibility, and will definitely say a lot about its level of professionalism. There are many types of business communication, including electronic communication, employment communication, verbal and non-verbal communication, as well as written communication and all these must be done properly in order to reap good results."

" The importance of Effective Virtual Working & Communication: The last ten years have seen a rapid rise in the adoption of virtual and remote working among organisations of all types and sizes. In addition to increased productivity and reduced business costs, organisations also benefit from a more motivated workforce seeking a better work/life balance. With technological advances such as access to broadband, VoIP and changes in organisational culture facilitating this move, seemless remote working and communication with colleagues, suppliers and clients across the globe has never been easier."

"Communication is fundamental to any form of organizing but is preeminent in virtual organizations. Virtual organizations are characterized by (a) highly dynamic processes, (b) contractual relationships among entities, (c) edgeless, permeable boundaries, and (d) reconfigurable structures. Relative to more traditional settings, communication processes that occur in virtual contexts are expected to be rapid, customized, temporary, greater in volume, more formal, and more relationship-based. To glean insight into communication processes for virtual organizations, we draw on the rich body of literature on synchronous and asynchronous electronic organizational communication. The vast set of empirical findings regarding mediated communication can foreshadow how communication will change as firms "go virtual." Six areas of electronic communication research provide implications for the major aspects of virtual organization design: (1) communication volume and efficiency, (2) message understanding, (3) virtual tasks, (4) lateral communication, (5) norms of technology use, and (6) evolutionary effects.
