We should have a video meeting

With so much “stuff” done online now, we should take Pelican online. I know there is many “interesting” people here, but talking about cars, I think we can all agree; we can do it until the cows come home.

What about a monthly topic, experts, and Tabs?! Anyone….Bueller…

Zoom and Teams became obsolete and died in 2020. The vaccine came too late.

This is a great idea. Can’t believe we haven’t done this yet.

I personally DESPISE video calls and actively avoid as many as possible.

Thanks, but I won’t do it.

I bet I've got you beat on the accent

Sometimes I do think it would be interesting to put faces and voices to the posts.

Anyone use an Echo Show for video calls? I have one and quit using the video calling.

My daughter did a zoom presentation for work last week. This was for an audience of 240 people. I said did you get to see the audience? She said only me.

I do not know how it works with so many on Zoom at once. Perhaps there is a limited audience to get your pic on Zoom. I see Tabs somehow on screen. The "Jeffrey Toobins" should be banned for life.

To the OP it is an interesting proposal...perhaps some members would behave better if they were seen.

I think looking at your mugs would make me feel better about mine! (the ladies excluded of course)
