Meeting technologies consist of electronic hardware and software applications that are used by teams to support task and social processes. Although individuals and groups may utilize the technologies for a range of reasons, meeting technologies are often adopted to help mitigate costs associated with structural characteristics of groups (e.g., group size, diversity of membership, distribution across time and/or space), perceived or real limitations of group work such as decreased motivation or coordination, and/or to maximize the sought‐after benefits that are more typically attributed to group work. Three types of meeting technologies are described based on the ways that these tools provide support for (1) scheduling and planning, (2) participation, and (3) data storage, retrieval, and recording. Following the description of the forms of meeting technology, there is a summary of recent research findings and brief descriptions of the way theory informs our understanding of these technologies.
