At the May CRUG meeting Bob Shevlin will share his experience with us in a discussion of Mikogo and Skype. Mikogo is a free screen capture program that the originator sets up with someone else and the originator has the option to show either of their desktops so they can alternately look at each others desktop. This offers many advantages for teaching and tech support. Using Skype at the same time allows free phone service. So be sure to attend to see how these interesting tools can be a benefit to you.

Coffee and refreshments at 6:00

 

 

This is a program that lets up to 10 students or friends view your Desktop. Great for meetings and online classes
