Instant Ping (particularly for teams where most people are on premise):
1. You have a computer (the Instant Pinger) setup. All it is is a monitor with a webcam and a faster internet connection, in addition to a small computer that can run the Instant Pinger and a keyboard, with super high quality mic.
2. When anyone (presumably an employee) sits in front of the Instant Pinger they're instantly, and automatically connected to you. You will immediately appear on the monitor and they will appear on yours. Text, video, and screen sharing will activated from your end to the monitor.
3. When they leave the connection immediately closes. There's no need to press disconnect for you are always "connected" to begin with.
Why?
Many say the serendipity of the office is what allows great ideas to spread. The Instant Pinger recreates this with an always on connection, and "presence to talk" messaging. A light could even be installed on the remote monitor to indicate whether or not the local (really remote) user is on their desk, or not.
