@garicgymro @DingemanseMark @ProfSimonFisher I do this too. I don't always use the most accurate words in a Skype interview. But everything that isn't "Brown said 'XYZ'" is the journalist's problem. Most writers accept this condition, but some don't, sometimes due to their outlet's policy, which seems anti-fact checking.

@4ndyman Well, taking a picture is a good start! That counts for something. And I’m happy to help at any point. Heck, we could even chat over Skype video and we could walk through the major features and such—or whatever might work for you. (Or if that’s not your thing, that’s okay too.)

@Outlook Signing in is not the problem. It’s the verification after. I don’t have subject lines or Skype names from years ago.

@josheac I remember MSFT pleading with me to give them time to solve Skype’s issues. Never happened. Zoom wipes the floor.

A friend who’s an innovation person at pharma says it’s worse for them because everyone thinks they are a tech expert because they use Facebook sometimes. They are also confused with IT and are asked to fix Skype or email problems

@BodenLab @AcademicChatter @Skype I mean I have no problem with it but since everything is updating and adopting to the trends, skype is still where it was years ago. Just doesn’t seem right to be using it in era of now.

@geochili Current findings: Problem is, these days, is resumes are ran through AI software before they pass and get to a human; some want video/audio recording for "first interviews" (not even live Skype or the like); or ask for "text to apply". It's all completely impersonal and sterile.
