Hi All!

I'm Sheila (aka: the other Sheila K). 😁  I've been working remotely since long before the pandemic. I'm an INFP/J (depends on the day) and prefer solitude with occasional social gatherings so this workstyle is perfect for me!

 

Location: Denver, CO 

 

Favorite things to do: Photography, travel, journal, and make spreadsheets for everything! It's a problem. 

 

How long I’ve been using Zoom? A year and change perhaps. 

 

What’s your go-to virtual background? Lately, it's been a bookcase wall full of old leather bound books or any of my own photos. It's hard to find backdrops that make it look like you're actually sitting in a corner office with floor-to-ceiling windows and a fabulous view.

 

​​What's the most unique Zoom event you've attended in the last year? A party with virtual games. 

 

I look forward to many years at Zoom!

 

Cheers!

I am David, living in the Midlands but originally from Newcastle.

I use Zoom mostly for on line courses which is an important recreation for me being retired, I have taken part in on line Creative Writing courses also others about history, popular science subjects and anything else that takes my fancy.

I am member of the University of the Third Age, which is a community group that organises talks by members on any subject which might appeal to the group.  Zoom has proved useful for linking me to on line courses taking places in other areas of the country.

Greetings Bri and team.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Definitely loving the vibe here within the Zoom community so far. I appreciate the opportunity to share and to also receive guidance. I believe that life is a learning  process and that each day in no matter how small a way we are presented with opportunities to grow. This applies to all spheres of life.

 

I have been using Zoom personally for a few years. Been on a personal licensed account for more than 2 years. Due to work, I have been on an educational license for the past few months as our institution transitioned from another web conferencing tool. It has been an eye-opening and enlightening time as I slowly get to know more features.

 

Using your template here are my answers to the questions posed:

Location: Kingston, Jamaica

 

Favourite things to do: Watch a good movie. Preferably something in the comedy/drama/action line.

 

How long have I been using Zoom? Definitely more than 4 years. Can’t recall the exact number.

What’s your go-to virtual background? I like anything that gives a relaxing yet professional look at the same time. An office chair against a wall with palms or large window with greenery outside are my top choices.

 

What’s the most unique Zoom even you’ve attended in the last year? A short course that was delivered primarily via Zoom. The facilitators really made good use of Zoom to deliver the course as they integrated other educational technologies. They really did deliver some good concepts and showed how Zoom can be used to engage an audience as material was being delivered.

 

Regards,

Bri
