Back in October when I wrote about my first Jellyvision interview, I mentioned overhearing what sounded like a "Max Headroom-esque sentient wisecracking computer."
As it turns out, it was Poland. He telecommutes from Michigan. He's in the office most days, but always via a television screen. More than one television screen in fact, different sizes in different rooms.
Despite the occasional time-lag delay, he's still very much a part of the office. In fact, as this picture shows, he participated in Mustache Day.
I find his trapped-in-a-TV state endlessly strange and endlessly fascinating.

Speaking as a new telecommuter, I am glad that my work has not demanded that I be on camera all the time. It would significantly cramp my recently discovered working style.
Of course, I don't work for a young and hip company with plenty of attitude. Rather an international behemoth with legions of bureaucrats.

Funny, I always thought of all of you as the ones in the trapped-in-a-TV state. Although I'm sure it's just the basement radon talking.
How does the TV linkup work? Is it done via internet, really long cups and strings perhaps?
