Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #920
Hey there, Teri Fisher here with your flash briefing for today, and very interesting piece of news that has come across the internet recently.
And with all of us at home doing zoom calls, get this there’s a partnership that is in the works between Zoom and Amazon to allow zoom video calls to take place on the Echo devices with a screen, so the Echo shows of the various different sizes.
So if you are using zoom a lot for whatever you’re doing, I know I am, then really interesting, because now you can have your Echo show in front of you and you’ll be able to access your zoom calls right there.
