[ Recordings ]

For most of my working career, when a meeting was over, it was over, and only in the memory remained. 

In the meeting, you talked and participated, sometimes you said things that were brilliant and insightful, sometimes you said something embarrassing or wrong.  Sometimes you’d have a heated argument.  And when the meeting was over, you moved onto the next activity.

Now, meetings are often recorded.  Now, something you said is re-watchable.  Now, it’s possible for someone who was not in the meeting to watch it later.

Recorded meetings:  now that’s a lot of (boring) data being stored for later.
