MacVoices #20158: MacVoices Live - Virtual Conferences, In-Person Conferences, and WWDC (2)

This edition of MacVoices Live, recorded as we get ready for the online version of Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), features a discussion of how virtual conferences compare to the in-person variety. Kelly Guimont and Brittany Smith join host Chuck Joiner to discuss the things that we will have and the things we will miss this year. The former includes all the great information from WWDC. Some of the latter include the random encounters, the “hallway track”, and the satellite events that brought people from all over the world, even if they didn’t have a WWDC ticket.

Thanks to the miracle of the adjustable leg desk, she no longer needs the phonebook. Kelly writes for The Mac Observer, is the host of the Daily Observations Podcast, is co-host of The Aftershow, and yet still has more to say which she saves for Twitter and Micro.blog.

MacVoices #20154: Aleksey Novicov of Yodel Code Introduces ScreenBadge

Aleksey Novicov of Yodel Code introduces ScreenBadge, the latest in his evolving efforts to help facilitate the exchange of business contact information. With COVID-19, not only are we interacting in person less, but are reluctant to exchange business cards. ScreenBadge lets you create a QR code for use with Zoom and Skype virtual backgrounds so that your information is on screen at all times. Aleksey explains how it works, what you need to use it, and how security was considered during its development. http://traffic.libsyn.com/maclevelten/MV20154.mp3 This edition of MacVoices is supported by Linode, high performance cloud hosting and virtual servers for everyone.
