Got tech problems with my broadcast camera at home so having to do my @thismorning slot via Skype in an emergency. Love the fact the warning message "ITV is using a device that could record or broadcast this call" has popped up

@iTukela Have you attended an interview where there was no panel? You login and at a click questions pops up and you have 3 minutes to answer. Would you prefer that over online platforms like via Skype, Zoom, Teams with panels? #CoachingwithNolundi

Skype for Business doesn't have read receipts but if **** is going down in work I send a message then click another window as quick as possible. It's like a survival response.

@ar_wills I was struggling to work out the issues, with the grand daughter. I didnt want to put her in a position on air to discuss something that personal (and I was struggling to hear properly due to skype) That is an option, but I worry it is over engineering the problem for savings?

******* @Microsoft is so stupid! Again, they are trying to force @Skype on me by adding a “Meet Now” button in the taskbar after an update. No surprise that the top search results are all about how to remove it. Never have this problem with Macs and Ubuntu.

Hmmm I could either invest in this Zoom thing that’s basically Skype, or this hot new streaming service Quibi. -someone in 2019

Manipulative **** mother can die in a fire. She wants me to help my uncle set up skype. I am no better at using google than anyone else. "Oh but you really are so clever at these things!" and then when I continue to point out how little good I can be

My iphone/ipad already has the best camera. There are apps to solve this but they are all broken now because virtual webcam software is no longer supported on skype/facetime, apple removed that ability in signed applications or something like that.

@sergimansilla I tried all the commercial ones (elgato, manycam) and they all broke mac support on anything newer than 10.14, facetime and skype are broken.

@Amanda_Bhopes Yeah that sounds like a good plan. I guess I could Skype my parents but God help me if I have to explain technology over the phone to a couple of 70 year olds 😣
