How do I "Zoom"?Zoom is a fun (and easy) way to teleconference with numerous people, right on your home computer. It includes audio and video, with your screen looking something like the Brady Bunch.
Once you figure it out, you can attend Senior Center events, as well as ‘meet’ with friends, family, church groups, classes and more! Over 200 million people use Zoom each day—and if they can figure it out, so can you!
Just type "Zoom" in your browser and you will see dozens of instructional videos or CLICK HERE for an easy explanation. |
