ZOOM

At the invitation of my niece, I downloaded ZOOM.
The app is free both to download and use and all you need is a camera and mic on your device, (the larger the better).
Days ahead of time, the niece sent our whole family an invitation to visit at a certain date and time.
We are all spread out over the country and globe actually.
All I had to do was click on her invitation link at the appointed time and zooooom there we all were, each of us in a window.
When someone spoke, their window was a little larger than the others.
You get 40 minutes for your meeting … and then the screen goes blank, but if you go back to your email and click on the original invitation: zoom, you are back in the room.
I am so glad I have it for personal visits ... and God forbid if I need a visit with my doctor, he does both zoom and skype.
It was a hoot … and the best medicine ever.
