The Owl

The key to avoiding uncomfortable airplane trips is to skip the journey altogether. If there is a work meeting that requires face to face contact,  you no longer have to suffer through business travel. Enter this genius device called the Owl. It is a video conferencing tool with a 360-degree view of the room. It allows you to see everyone and everything happening. It automatically focuses the relevant camera on the person talking. Seeing everyone in the room is critical, so no sidebars are happening behind your back (other than on text, of course). By avoiding travel, primarily via airplane, you are maintaining your sanity and doing something positive for the environment. Kudos to you!
