@peterleone @martysg Spoke to my cousin in Italy this morning on the Skype, they have bigger infrastructure and pre existing health issues in the country and a bigger elderly population but people are scared there.

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.

I’ve used zoom a couple of times. Ow and still don’t understand which problems it solves that Skype or Google Hangouts or Slack don’t already solve better.

@econwonk @HorwitzGabe I agree. People have social needs that don’t get met when they are isolated. Facetime, Skype, etc.. can help but they cannot fully replace face to face.

@timweigel @_randolph_west @arrowdrive I have a paid Skype ac to help me call my phone to find it. That's it's only use. I've stressed multiple times on where the missed call is from.

@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 🤣

@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

@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.

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.

@ElganHearnNews As to public access my initial thought is that the officer leading the Skype meeting could do so in the council chamber and use the Congress system to we cast the meeting. Creating a Skype login for the media may also be an option. This is the detail we need to work out.

@gabyvparker I couldn’t do face to face but if they struggle to find someone I could potentially offer phone/Skype and reduce costs. It’s terrible that they’re having to self fund this. It’s crucial to the role
