Ever wake up one morning and realize that the group meeting app, Zoom, appeared to take over the world?
Ever wonder when FB and Google would swoop in to compete?
If so, it’s surprising that it took them that long (approximate 32 seconds).
Just look at:
www.komando.com/technology/google-meet-is-free-for-everyone/737471/
And while the topic might seem truly peachy indeed (I mean, consider how much of a staple Google Hangouts used to be), this one tradeoff:
“…Additionally, you need a Google Account in order to use and access this service. While that may not sound bad on its own, this also means your search history data, YouTube viewer history, and Google Meets chat history will be saved and collected as part of your digital footprint with Google. That’s a lot of data going to just one company…”
Jeepers, ya think?
Be that as it may, the “new reality” of “‘way less face-to-face meetings” is something that could make for a great blueprint/blog post/cheatsheet or the like!
It could be structured as:
Step 1.) Research the available group meet chats
Step 2.) Ensure you have all the tools/tips present to make them work
Step 3.) Verify security and schedule it on!
