The statistics are pretty amazing:

B: Fear of flying keeping executives grounded.
Jitters have Web conferencing
business on the rise

Nov 06, 2001 (Inman News Features via COMTEX)
-- The U.S. Web conferencing
market is set to grow rapidly as jittery business executives opt out of traveling by air.

According to New York City-based research
firm Frost & Sullivan, the Web conferencing
market will have revenues of $110 million this
year, up 75 percent from last year's total of
$62 million,
Nua Publishing reported.

Before the Sept. 11 attacks, Frost & Sullivan
had forecast that this market would grow by
65 percent to $102 million. However, there has
already been a sharp increase in the number
of firms using Web conferencing in the past two
months.

The research firm predicted that Web
conferencing revenues would grow by a
further 75 percent next year.
That growth
will be due to a realization of time
saved rather than a fear of air travel.
