Dear World, if you are on a Skype or a Zoom call, can you please set your device down on a flat surface and leave it there? 🤢🤢🤢

@jptrthndr Microsoft gave up any rights to MSNBC years ago. I’ve seen people using Skype and Zoom; but there are security issues with zoom. I haven’t seen anyone using gotomeeting. 2020 not only has a pandemic exposing issues its exposing our cruddy cyber broadband as well.

@ishrutidwivedi Skype will be replaced by teams. Microsoft will slowly take down Skype by next year... hence no development

@merket @LauraCatPJs Key word there is “was”. Loved Wunderlist and used all the time. Tolerate MSFT To Do because I need a decent Task list Skype WAS also great but quickly went down hill. This is a terrible idea for TikTok but great for someone building a competitor

I've waited since 10 june for first available legal video link with a client in wandsworth. Told just now (afternoon before said visit) that he's been moved to Brixton. Only told as WE called them to chase the missing Skype link. The whole system is broken and disjointed.

@WBA set up a public zoom/Skype call for the public to witness the dressing down Bilic is about to give that squad. Promotion in our own hands and it’s been thrown away. Joke.

@TheWrestlingPo2 @NishGuy @goodbadwrestle Click on the drop down menu and put it on your USB mic. Also, go into Windows settings and change the default Communication device to your usb mic because Skype, Audacity etc tend to revert back to default periodically.

@LUBOttom @bodmansjaxs That's disgusting, it may help to download skype, if you have decent internet available, I always use it when calling numbers that charge a lot, usually it comes out much cheaper.

@usconsmontreal @StateDept @TravelGov Is there any possibility of conducting the immigration visa interviews through video call (Skype)? I assume it would help on speeding the process and riding away with the backlog you may have now.

@AlboMP & @ScottMorrisonMP ... why can’t you go digital? The rest of the world is working from home. Why can’t you? I’m sure ZOOM or SKYPE or FACEBOOK would be happy to help. And there’s the @abcnews service you can take over too. Transparency is vital
