[nesfa-reading-group] Fwd: Reading group meeting on-line?

[Wesley Brodsky]

Since I had recently received a message from reading-group-owner; when I started to type reading group into my To: line, that was the first address it went to. I need to examine where it is sending things more closely.

It isn't clear to me where the direct connection exists, but the "*-owner" email aliases point to the email admins, who are me, Rick and Sharon.


It was my understanding that Louis was planning to restart the reading group on May 1st (The Light Brigade) with some kind of video conferencing he is comfortable with.  Louis?

Hello Everybody;



I think we need to think about having reading group meetings on Zoom. I have free Zoom; available at:

 

https://zoom.us/pricing  

 

It includes:

Host up to 100 participants

Unlimited 1 to 1 meetings

40 mins limit on group meetings

Unlimited number of meetings

(If there are an unlimited number of meetings, could we just “take a break” between 40 Min. intervals?)

Online support

Video Conferencing Features

HD video

HD voice

Active speaker view

Full screen and gallery view

Simultaneous Screen Share

Join by telephone call-in

Virtual Background

 

For $14.99/mo./host Meeting duration limit is 24 hrs. Would it make sense for all who regularly attend meeting to chip in about $3.00 month for that?

 

I have not started The Light Brigade yet. So maybe schedule a meeting for Friday, May 1, 2020 ; 7:00pm to 10:00pm, if others like that? 

  

Wes Brodsky,
