I’ve been doing a lot more face-to-face work with my clients. That used to be impossible when your clients were hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
My laptops came with webcams, but they were difficult to use at my house because I have so many windows (backlighting, you know). I’ve been doing meetings and presentations via Google Hangout on my Chromebook, but it’s still the same problem – background.
I finally broke down and bought a Logitech c920 webcam for my desktop. Yes, I have a window behind me, but I can control the room better. I’m thinking of putting a custom backdrop behind me when I’m on camera. We’ll see what happens.
