I spend a large portion of my week on video calls with colleagues, whether it's discussing requirements, pairing, bouncing ideas off someone or just shooting the shit before standup. I don't feel that my contact time has changed significantly at all. I actually think working from home facilitates face to face communication over an open plan office because everyone has total control over the sound in their office. If you're on a call you can be as loud as you like without disturbing and other calls you just don't hear at all. For me it's a huge win. Then there's all the extra time and energy you have from no commute. I socialise far more frequently since working from home then when I was commuting into London for instance.
