@ScottLevinTV @WGRZ It would be nice if these nursing homes homes had Skype or something available for families. Ellicott Center is terrible

@ZahraBhimani Let me know if you need any help at all. Even happy to jump on a Skype call if you'd like. Also note that Cisco Webex has made their video conferencing free and Zoom always has a free tier, but it has limited attendees.

Our institution is moving online. - a week ago, website went down, no explanation; - Moodle is still a mystery to most professors; - We have till now used, exclusively apparently, polycom; - I had to intervene at the last two phd defenses I was at to allow remotes to Skype in.

@dawnmkelly Looking at doing Skype classes which might work. Worth a shot, because if we're still shut after Easter I'll be off down the job centre

@MathieuFleury I believe so. It's set up by people in the area to either help check in on isolated individuals, offer small services like dog walking for people worried about being outdoors, and a place for people in need of items, help, or a check-in (phone, email, Skype) to leave their info.

@abottleoftales Get on Teams/Skype and ask for help. Don't be afraid. You won't be looked on badly for asking for help, or for not knowing what (specifically) to ask about.

@TelcoDR No doubts! When there are no backhaul issues we need the centralized nodes to perform as well, and I'm with you on this one, I would love to know how the public clouds are behaving on services like Zoom, WebEx, Skype, WhatsApp, RingCentral, etc.

Stealing this off a colleague! Looks like we could all have some extra down time over the next few weeks or so. If anyone would like to skype to discuss all things physio / rehab etc please feel free to contact me, would be delighted to arrange!!

@Tony_young78 @berniespofforth No, they can't. Teleconferences and Skype are a terrible way to conduct serious trade talks.

@vishalseth @onedrive Office 365. All office products updated regularly with 24/7 chat support+ 1 Tb which believe me it’s a lot + Skype minutes. DP, considering the pricing is like a good neighbor who stopped to be willing to help 🤣

@ScouseTims We can try but she is too disabled to understand how to use the interface. We’re encouraging the home to set up a large tv with camera so families can Skype residents. But that’s not going to help that much with the massive isolation she will experience.

This👇👇- @PlayStationUK has built in chat as does @xboxuk every office gets one and home and problem solved. Let’s be honest skype- zoom- wigwam- doc-sack- flimflam have nothing on these dedicated systems.

@MarieCalais2 I’m sure they’ll start doing consults via the Internet which will be problematic anyway,not everyone has the Internet,Skype or FaceTime etc. I usually see my GP every 10 days but I’ll see what happens,I’m an easy fix than many though. Ian
