Etymology
Virtually is also used for things that happen by computer or in a computer-made space, and this modern meaning comes from the same Latin root virtus, which gave the idea of having the 'essence' of something without being the real, physical thing. So a 'virtual' meeting has the 'essence' of a meeting but happens online, which is why we say people meet virtually.
