@hannahforest Thinking about it, they don't need to do it, they can have debates and questions on Skype. It'd be a problem for the media to cover them but I'm sure there're ways around that.

It pains me to say it but I might have to cancel next month's trip to Nashville along with my summer plans until things calm down. Catch me doing Pride Skype 2020.

@econwonk @HorwitzGabe I agree. People have social needs that don’t get met when they are isolated. Facetime, Skype, etc.. can help but they cannot fully replace face to face.

@peterleone @martysg Spoke to my cousin in Italy this morning on the Skype, they have bigger infrastructure and pre existing health issues in the country and a bigger elderly population but people are scared there.

@abottleoftales Get on Teams/Skype and ask for help. Don't be afraid. You won't be looked on badly for asking for help, or for not knowing what (specifically) to ask about.

I’ve used zoom a couple of times. Ow and still don’t understand which problems it solves that Skype or Google Hangouts or Slack don’t already solve better.

@dawnmkelly Looking at doing Skype classes which might work. Worth a shot, because if we're still shut after Easter I'll be off down the job centre

Trying to think of things us young, currently healthy lot can do... - Let neighbours know we are *currently* able to do a shop - Buy double of everything & give to a food bank - Download Skype for elderly relatives/ write to them - Contact local care homes & ask how we can help

If you’re wondering why the younger, lower-paid colleagues you’ve treated like shit for years don’t seem to be responding to your demands for help on how to use Skype, it really isn’t because “the servers are busy”.

@ScouseTims We can try but she is too disabled to understand how to use the interface. We’re encouraging the home to set up a large tv with camera so families can Skype residents. But that’s not going to help that much with the massive isolation she will experience.

@Tony_young78 @berniespofforth No, they can't. Teleconferences and Skype are a terrible way to conduct serious trade talks.

This👇👇- @PlayStationUK has built in chat as does @xboxuk every office gets one and home and problem solved. Let’s be honest skype- zoom- wigwam- doc-sack- flimflam have nothing on these dedicated systems.

@gabyvparker I couldn’t do face to face but if they struggle to find someone I could potentially offer phone/Skype and reduce costs. It’s terrible that they’re having to self fund this. It’s crucial to the role

@MedicineGovSte I will definitely be there but please please DM me or something as my memory is terrible and I can't miss another one. Oh and it would be great to Skype chat, was thinking we could group chat at some point too
