With COVID-19 our lives have changed in many ways, including the way we work. Ever since the pandemic started, we have seen many remote conferences, concerts, collaborations, TV shows, and meetings that are relying on video chat services. Here is a list of services that can help you communicate remotely right now and even after the social distancing orders are lifted.
