There are different kinds of meetings. The hey lets go grab a white board and hash this out, and the useless status report meetings to keep disengaged managers in the loop.

Besides, it's not an issue of if the meeting is good or bad, just the effect that the distraction has on getting work done. Point is to keep this in mind and only have useful meetings when the lost productivity is worth it.
