In my opinion telecommuting is possible for professionals but it has to involve every employer AND Yes it can involve every Desk-worker !!!!
.
This means Team-Building, Training on the job, Trust and unofficial gossip to match ideas….all during Telecommuting
.
We can give this trough Full-time HQ Video and Audio for every employer and manager.
Constantly seeing each other will really build a team.

Help, where do you find companies that offer telecommuting positions. It is next to impossible to sift through all of the garbage on the web for legitimate opportunities. Any guidance you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

As someone who has made a living for the past 6 years as an independent contractor, I appreciate more than most the technological advancements that have enabled this lifestyle. The great news is that the tech that enables productive telecommuting just keeps getting better and better. There is a ton of buzz today about videoconferencing as the “big answer” to telecommuting, but good solutions are pricey. With Google Docs, GoToMeeting and the Vello conferencing service, you have everything you need for day to day business. Full disclosure, Vello is one of my clients, but it’s a service that deserves to be factored into the telecommuting calculus. Vello dials OUT to participants, instead of making everyone dial IN. No more fumbling with passcodes, no more long PIN codes, no more forgetting meetings, and con calls begin on time. Check it out – http://www.vellocall.com. Happy Telecommuting!

The change has happened, it just takes much of society a long time to realise and/or shake the inertia of the past.

I think the big issue is how do we infuse whatever goodness there is in “face to face working” back into the web worker’s life.

Not too much, not too little, is not always an easy question to answer. Technology might help you get “pseudo face to face” to some degree but do want only that?
