The useful mental model.

Start with the part that changes what you actually do or expect when you meet this concept in everyday digital life.

KEY IDEA 01Video meetings reproduce some real-time cues while adding new friction such as connectivity, camera decisions and turn-taking latency.
KEY IDEA 02Recording or transcription changes the privacy and permanence of a meeting and should be understood by participants.
KEY IDEA 03Not every collaboration problem requires a meeting; asynchronous formats can preserve focus.

The workflow, not the app

A tool is useful when it clarifies how information moves from capture to decision to completion. Adding another app can also create another inbox.

Synchronous or asynchronous?

Choose real-time communication when immediate interaction matters; use durable documents and messages when work can move without everyone present.

SOURCES

Check the underlying references.

G7 prioritizes primary technical documentation, public-interest institutions and strong research. Product-specific behavior can change, so current service documentation remains important.
