    @ms_tor I had a 2 hour Skype meeting where we live edited a document with everyone collaborating, I thanked everyone for their help, turned round to grab my cold coffee, turned back to see the blue screen of death. I almost cried.

  • peabee72 Paula Battle (@peabee72) reported from Buckingham, England

    Mostly winning at Wednesday. Have just completed a laptop update and it hasn’t broken. Still can’t get in to Skype, but the world will keep turning despite a lack of inane IMs from me.

  • alcivanio Alcivanio (@alcivanio) reported from Montréal, Québec

    @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.

  • preinsko Pamela Reinskou ✌🏼 (@preinsko) reported from Sammamish, Washington

    @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.

  • jamillahhhh Jim Miller (@jamillahhhh) reported from Manhattan, New York

    @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

  • MattOwen74 🏳️‍🌈Matt🏳️‍🌈 (@MattOwen74) reported from Hove, England

    @andywdt I’ve been back for a month now and I’ve just had my skype video call count down for me.
