Internet Campuses and Virtual Community - Sound Ecclesiology?

There has been a bit of talk regarding internet campuses, virtual community and such from on different blogs. Here are some of the conversations going on regarding these subjects. What do you think about this? Do internet campuses promote sound ecclesiology?

Would love to hear what you think.
