Work, school, and even socializing increasingly take place remotely, and Zoom has quickly become one of the most popular tools for videoconferencing—one-on-one or with a group. Take Control of Zoom explains how to use the Zoom service from start to finish. It offers detailed instructions, warnings, and tips from installing and configuring the Zoom software, through setup and participation, and how to host meetings.

But you can learn to master some of its subtle, hard-to-find, or confusing features and increase your efficiency and enjoyment as a participant and as a host. Take Control of Zoom takes the pain out of learning how to best use this powerful tool.

Here’s what you will find in Take Control of Zoom: * Learn how to install and configure Zoom. * Decide if a web app meets your needs or it’s something to recommend to other meeting participants. * Configure your physical setup and your hardware for best resultson video.
* Don’t forget that even if you don’t see a stream of yourself, you’re on camera for other people. * Upgrade your audio for better comfort and quality. * Understand Zoom’s past missteps with security and what itpromises now.
* Master participating in a meeting, including the various methods of “speaking up.” * Get to know Zoom’s many mobile and desktop views for seeing other people and shared screens. * Become a host and start meetings with one other person or 1,000. * Dig into Zoom’s meeting controls to create safe meetings and manage public ones, keeping participants safe and blocking or removing problematic members. * Find out how to preserve your privacy when sharing apps, presentations, or other parts of your screen. * Record a meeting for later playback, presentation, or a podcast. * Decide whether upgrading to a paid Zoom tier offers enough improvement and features for meetings you host.

10 THINGS YOU SHOULDN’T DO ON YOUR WORK COMPUTER (OR PHONE)May 14, 2020
When you’re at the office, working on your employer’s computer, it’s important not to do certain things. The computer isn’t yours, and, if your company is large enough, your boss may use software to check what you do, which websites you’ve visited, and may even read your emails.
