  1. I added that Zoom user as a contact, and they accepted. They show up in my list of contacts. When I try to share a doc with them, they don't show up in the (empty) list of contacts I can share with. What gives?

  2. I created a test Zoom doc and tried to share it with a Zoom user by email. I got the error "Your sharing actions are too frequent. Please try again later."

    Does this actually work for a free user sharing with an "external" user?

  3. Zoom accidentally 'shut down' their own domain, proving once again that even tech giants can't resist the allure of the big red button 🛑😂. Meanwhile, users everywhere enjoyed a sudden surge in productivity as meetings vanished into the void of internet incompetence 🌐💥.

  4. "Sorry I wasn't paying attention to my virtual class today, I was trying to train my cat to sit in the hood portion of a backwards hoodie"

    (And then "tooted" about it...)

    This professor is my favorite - he's very engaging - and this class is definitely interesting to me, but my attention span just disappears once I get on Zoom 😬

    Glad this is a snow day thing instead of an every day thing.

  5. @Davidtoddmccarty I try to educate my colleagues in how to safely share from their work laptop. I'm not always successful -- I was once in a meeting where a salesperson was sharing some slides and somebody asked a question that betrayed, tactfully speaking, a lack of context. I sent the salesperson a Slack message expressing a cutting opinion...only to have it pop up on their (shared) desktop.
