No one knows how webcams actually work, so… You can become a Zoom pro and impress co-workers with these tips!

Don’t join five minutes after the meeting’s started. It’s happened to us all. We’re all set for the meeting… but where oh where did I put the darn link to join! This tip’s the one I personally need the most. I’m not late I’m just disorganized. Solution here.

Don’t distract yourself by obsessing on your own image. Here’s how to hide the video of you from yourself, while allowing others to see that you’re engaged and alert.

Sometimes, you just don’t want to be seen by everyone… but showing just your name seems, well, unfriendly. Here’s how to set and use a profile picture instead of live video during a Zoom. Another take on the subject. And, since nothing techy ever seems to be glitch-free, here’s what to do when that doesn’t work. (Personal tip? You have to do it once the meeting’s underway. Good reason to find that darn link and “arrive” early.)

And in conclusion, an article full of advice that the authors say “you probably shouldn’t take”… complete with another use for Post-It notes.
