NoDesk: Issue #206
A weekly newsletter with the best new remote jobs, stories and ideas from the remote work community, and occasional offbeat pieces to feed your curiosity.
By Daniel (@nodeskco).
This issue is brought to you by Around.
You’ve never been able to put your finger on it, but video meetings have always felt a bit .... off.
It’s not just the fatigue. Or the fact that it takes over your whole screen. Simply put, traditional video conferencing just isn’t designed for how modern remote teams operate.
We’re changing that.
Around has radically reimagined video calls for how teams REALLY work today. From anti-fatigue touches like AI noise cancellation and background cropping, to an unobtrusive interface that frees up your screen, to immersive games and music for team bonding, Around helps teams create, collaborate and even celebrate like never before.
So ditch your outdated video meetings and join thousands of other forward-thinking teams that have moved to Around. You’ll never want to go back to Zoom or Google Meet again.
