Zoom and Google Meet will now be really close to each other. Google has announced bi-directional interoperability between the two videoconferencing tools. One of the features is allowing users to join Google Meet meetings from Zoom Rooms and vice versa.

If you’ve ever been in a Zoom meeting and for some reason wanted the whole thing to be streamed on Twitch, then we’ve got good news for you. Announced in a recent blogpost by Zoom, that exact feature is now available for all users of the popular video conferencing platform.

Part of a slew of new features and upgrades, Zoom said that it is allowing for direct Zoom Meeting and Webinar livestream to Twitch so that users can “streamline the process of sharing content within their communities,”. Well, it could prove to be quite a useful and 'PogChamp' tool for Twitch streamers, especially those under the ‘IRL’ category.

With working from home being the new normal since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, online video meetings have become an integral part of a working professional’s life. In fact, throughout the pandemic, Zoom has been the must-have app on our devices to keep up with work as well as connect with friends and families in our personal life.

However, we’ve got to admit that Zoom meetings are getting pretty boring and stale now. Thankfully, Zoom thinks so too and is launching a new feature that would spice up Zoom Meetings and Zoom Webinars: Avatars!

For everyone who is working or studying from home, it is indeed a hard thing to stay focused due to various factors. With that said, Zoom has announced a new update coming up called Focus Mode. As the name suggests, this was designed to assist students to keep focus during online classes.

During the pandemic, having online meetings is such a norm now that most of us have a Zoom and other video call app accounts by default. However, most of them aren't exactly free as there is only a limited amount of time to use as free members.

In response to the launch of the OPPO Find X3 Pro last night, Redmi's Product Director Wang Teng said that he's glad to see other smartphone brands adopt the "microscope" camera that enables users to shoot macro images. For your information, the telephoto macro feature was actually first introduced by Xiaomi last year, and it looks like it will be on a Redmi smartphone soon.

For those of us in Malaysia, the only relevance that Thanksgiving has for us are the sales that will happen on e-commerce sites like Amazon. But this time around we'll be getting some extra from Zoom. Just for one day, the platform will remove the time limit for free meetings on Thanksgiving.

Due to the competition in the video meeting space, Zoom has had to work hard to keep its users sticking around. Several features have been pushed out in the last 6 months alone, but the one that many asked for would be end-to-end encryption. Zoom promised this back in June and it's now finally rolling out to users.

The COVID-19 pandemic may go down as one of history's most disruptive times, but it forced many of us to adopt new ways to work and communicate. In particular, video meetings are now synonymous with Zoom. So, the company is looking to capitalise on that by introducing a new platform called OnZoom.

It seems that OPPO is working on a new hybrid zoom technology which could improve the sharpness of pictures taken by the periscope zoom lens, regardless of focal length. With that said, we can expect OPPO smartphones equipped with a periscope camera system to be able to capture a much sharper image regardless of the distance.
