If you haven't noticed it yet, there is a new teleconference platform. Google is now rolling out a Zoom alternative,
Google Meet that includes free auto-captioning. If you already have G-Suites, it is already enabled. Maximum capacity: 100 people. Unlimited meeting time limit until Sept. 30; after that there will be a one-hour cap.
You should see it on the left side of your Gmail navigation pane under your email folders.
I had mentioned
in a blog post I wrote over the weekend that there were sure to be other competitors entering this market space. Watch for more!
