Telecom best practices #376
Comments
@markcmiller86, in terms of process, what do you mean by assigning this to @curfman and I? Are we supposed to shepherd the idea, as in today's discussions? Or something else? As far as the topic goes, I've been marinating a number of related ideas for a while. I'm thinking more original article than blog article, but I don't think that has to be set in stone at this point. I'm going to put this topic suggestion on the board and give it a thumbs up! |
I didn't. The issue template did ;) |
Also, AFAIK, we have yet to develop the workflow for blog articles so IMHO, we are still using the current (old) protocol...which based on your's and Lois' description in past meetings was that you both have served as the primary POC for blog content ;). All that said, I'd like to see if we as a group can write this blog article because we all have pretty good experience with telecom usage at this point and I would like to gather all the practices into a single place. |
Ok, here is a brainstorm of some (by no means exhuastive) thoughts... For hosts/prep
For participants
|
Some conferencing tools support "hostless" meetings, meaning they will work without someone logging in as host. If you can possibly use this capability, do! But note that even with hostless meetings, only individuals logged in as host can control things like muting distracting participants, controlling recording, etc. |
For everyone, but especially hosts:
|
For organizers of telecon-based events:
For participants:

I gave a thumbs up to this topic. I am in favor of "original article" and not "blog article". But how do I indicate that with my thumbs up? |
Exiting or silencing noisey apps (e.g. outlook as emails come in, chat, etc.)
|
happened to find this useful resource which might help inspire things here. |
Do we have a potential author for this? |
Waiting for an EB volunteer and an author TBD |
Some conferences can wind up being configured to require the host's presence. So, it won't start without the host and if the host hangs up, the meeting ends for everyone. |
Be aware of all your team member's time zones. Don't invite a co-worker to a 4am meeting or a 10pm meeting for that matter (unless you've pre-arranged that it is ok). |
We need an article on this for sure |
This is labeled as a blog article, but I question whether this topic would work well as a blog. I think it would be more appropriate as an original article or perhaps cc if we can find some good reference material. Can we consider whether this is best cast as a blog? |
or maybe a HowTo. I removed the blog label and added howto |
I think that this topic has been overtaken by events. I think we should just drop it. |
We should write an article on telecomm best practices for hosts as well as participants and any technology-specific (e.g. BlueJeans, WebEx, Zoom, GoToMeeting, etc) practices. There are a lot of things hosts and participants should take into account when working via telecomms.
