Paul Lawler & Don Sorcinelli join Jon Westfall and me to (mostly) discuss what we noticed about and the tech we used for working in organization during the ongoing pandemic
- Laptops, desktop sales see ‘renaissance;’ shortages won’t ease until 2022
But some analysts now expect 2020 will close at about 300 million shipments, up roughly 15% from a year ago. Tablets are experiencing even faster growth. (same as 2008 peak number)
- I hate how much I love Apple’s Airpods Max – Really interesting how many bloggers / reviewers hate the fact that they really like a $549 headset.
- People pay attention to background image quality but not audio quality. Ironically, it turns out I had audio issues when recording this podcast
- USB microphones
- Lav mics (wired and wireless)
- Bluetooth headphones
- Bluetooth keyboards
- The iPad mini 5 and Anker Bluetooth mini-keyboard as a mobile mini workstation
- Trimming down to one laptop (Jon)
- The challenge of teaching university level classes (Jon and Paul)
- Pandemic tech etiquette and best practices
