not so. I've found it's an effective way to not only judge how people think, but also how they communicate and respond to live feedback.

I've been interviewing developers since 1996. Everyone who has ever done a whiteboard interview says this.

Are you interviewing people for some kind of live coding game show? If so: I concede your point.
