Good question, I completely overlooked that aspect of online interaction. I guess more real-time digital communication such as video or call (video taking priority given that it contains additional sensory information) could come close, but none of these are 'memory-less' as physical interaction. I wonder if I myself have blown through professional relationships in this way...I like to think that the cultures I'm in aren't so risk averse towards the first impressions they make.
