It's not "Zoom fatigue." It's "why are you wasting my time with yet another meeting where I just sit here and listen to mostly irrelevant information that could have been an email while doing 5 other things that are actually important" exhaustion.

40% of deskless workers want to quit. Half of their managers are burned out every day. How can we fix the frontline work experience? ehstoday.com/health/article…

How about we assume that every employee is burned out and just fix the problems?

I'm always 2 USB ports short of happiness.

I'm now fully capable of working my new book into any and all conversations. I apologize in advance. :-)

@TheTracieCantu All part of the plan! Also why it can't be translated into another language. :-)

BOOK DROP! Grab an early release copy of my new book - The Modern Learning Ecosystem - at #DevLearn this week. This is your chance to read it a month early (if that's a thing you find exciting)! Share your photo w/ the book using #igotjdsbook. More info: jdwroteabook.com

Grab a special PRE-RELEASE copy of The Modern Learning Ecosystem right now at #DevLearn! My new book drops on November 29th, so this is your chance to be one of the first to read it. Share a photo with the book using #igotjdsbook. More info at jdwroteabook.com 😜🤣🤔

@techyalater @kevinbethune Is that ... a picture of my book?

@techyalater Was there an old normal?

If @kkapp said it ... :-)

@caranorth11 @DrSenseiCindy Starting to think there's a product to be built here ...

@DrSenseiCindy @JD_Dillon Sadly mine doesn’t transcripts beyond the ai generated captions. I’d love for JD to find an answer because I’m interested too.

Has anyone stumbled across tools for captioning, transcribing and/or translating live, in-person sessions? I'm looking for options to improve participant access without always relying on event organizers. 🤔

@toister I always offer a live session, even for events with less-than-compatible time zones. Nonetheless several digital events are fully pre-programmed with maybe a live Q&A.

@JD_Dillon My sessions are always interactive, so I don’t do pre-recorded sessions. In my experience, once I explain this to my client or event organizer, they are willing to do a live session.

A lot of "live" online content - webinars, conference sessions - is actually pre-recorded and replayed at a scheduled time. Does it matter to you if a LIVE session is actually LIVE? What makes simulive sessions better or worse from a participant perspective?

@mlassoff How would it not be my famousnessnessness?

@JD_Dillon Is that due to your famousnessness or poor, stupid planning?

@mlassoff I've also had experiences where I am speaking live but I'm locked in a delivery platform that doesn't allow me to see the chat or interact with the audience.

@JD_Dillon I like going into faux-live sessions and pointing out it's prerecorded. If you're lying to your audience as a starting point, you've already lost. Undisclosed simulive destroys trust. I teache LIVE and synchronous prerecorded courses they are totally different animals.

@criticallearner What if the Q+A is limited to text chat instead of a live conversation?

@caranorth11 @LnDDave @LearningGuild New event concept: rentable virtual presence devices so I can attend physically via robot counterpart

@JD_Dillon @LnDDave @LearningGuild It’s not going to be the same without you being there.

Getting ready for #Devlearn next week? Pre-game by watching this ITK episode featuring @LnDDave from @LearningGuild. youtu.be/cBpqaNZzQzY

@DrJenMurphy About 30% of my live online content is pre-recorded at this point, so I'm regularly listening to myself while engaging in chat.
