But you can change to “gallery view” which will show everyone on the screen together (up to about 35 people). I don’t imagine we’ll get to that many (if we did it’s going to be difficult to manage conversations!) But if we get over that amount, I’d ask everyone to chat for a while then leave for a bit to let others get in for a bit.īy default the main view will show one person (if their name comes up with no video it means they don’t have a webcam for video and are voice only). So use the phone number for the state you are in, to avoid being charged interstate call charges I believe the charges for dialing in on your phone will be charged like a normal phone call. Use the best number for your location (eg if you are in VIC, use the 03 area code number). You won’t have access to video of course, but can talk and hear people. (no, I don’t know what that means either 😛)

You will be asked for a password to join the meeting – you can find this on the Australian Hatting and Victorian Hatting facebook groups. If you are asked for a Meeting ID, enter this number: 364 566 167 This will launch the zoom program if you already have it, or will prompt you to download it if you don’t have it yet (it is a quick download).

You may be asked to make a (free) account and/or download the program.Ĭlick here for a video guide on how to join a Zoom meeting from your smartphoneĬlick here for a video guide on hot to join a Zoom meeting from your computer or laptop You can dial in on a phone if you don’t have internet access (with standard call charges). Zoom is free if you are joining from the app or the meeting room link. Queens, feel free to pass the info on to your chapters and you should be able to all get together in there. You can use it even if you don’t have access to a webcam, you can even just call in on your phone! I’ve set up a free video conference through “Zoom”. So anyone who wants to chat with other Hatters at any time can do so by clicking the link below, or dialing in on their phones. We we can host (free) video conferencing Hatter gatherings using “Zoom”.
