El trabajo en el momento del coronavirus está impulsando un gran crecimiento en las videoconferencias, ya que decenas de trabajadores de oficina se vuelven remotos e inician sesión en las reuniones desde casa.
Zoom, que ofrece una variedad de características ingeniosas, como la transcripción automática y los fondos virtuales, ha sido un beneficiario clave de este boom viral.
En febrero, los analistas de investigación Bernstein estimaron que la compañía había atraído a más usuarios activos en dos meses de 2020 que en todo 2019, citando datos de Apptopia que construye modelos alimentados por un SDK que rastrea descargas en una gran red de aplicaciones de terceros. sugiriendo que Zoom había agregado 2.22 millones de usuarios activos mensuales a fines de febrero frente a la incorporación de 1.99 millones en todo 2019.
En total estimaron Zoom tenía 12.92 millones de MAU, un aumento del 21% desde finales de 2019.
La cuestión es que en realidad no tiene que descargar la aplicación de Zoom para usar la herramienta de videoconferencia; puede funcionar en un navegador.
Batir el patrón oscuro de Zoom: únete desde tu navegador
La opción para unirse a una reunión de Zoom en un navegador está realmente bien oculta a menos que el organizador de la reunión haya ajustado la configuración predeterminada.
Como literalmente escondido hasta después ha hecho clic para unirse a una reunión, cuando la opción de unirse a través de un navegador aparece en un pequeño texto debajo de un enlace más destacado para “descargar y ejecutar Zoom”.
Es una experiencia de usuario realmente terrible o un patrón oscuro destinado a impulsar las descargas de aplicaciones.
Ocultar la opción de unirse a una llamada de Zoom en un navegador es, por decir lo menos, subóptimo, dado que muchos trabajadores domésticos usarán computadoras portátiles corporativas que bloquean las descargas de aplicaciones para reducir los riesgos de seguridad. (Y COVID-19 tiene mucho riesgo cibernético asociado).
También es simplemente desproporcionado exigir la descarga de una aplicación para unirse a una llamada. Zoom debería estar gritando sobre los beneficios adicionales de usar su aplicación, que admite más funciones, en lugar de tratar de engañar a los usuarios para que piensen que no tienen más remedio que descargarla si quieren hacer una reunión.
El enfoque de Zoom parece irresponsable, según algunos críticos, ya que puede resultar en que los participantes frustrados elijan llamar a una reunión en su lugar, perdiendo así la capacidad de ver contenido multimedia como diapositivas. Y cuando el mundo se enfrenta a una crisis de salud global, eso no es realmente bueno.
Eludir el patrón oscuro de Zoom significa mantener los ojos bien abiertos para un pequeño enlace de texto para “unirse desde su navegador”, y hacer clic fuera de él.
Aquellos que organizan reuniones de Zoom pueden mejorar una situación falsa al sumergirse en la configuración y alternarlos para que el enlace “unirse desde su navegador” se muestre automáticamente, en lugar de requerir que los participantes intenten descargar Zoom antes de que aparezca.
Juega un juego de buscar y haz clic en el pequeño candado
Para realizar este cambio, debe ir a la configuración de su cuenta de Zoom, navegar a la pestaña ‘Reunión’ y luego ‘En Reunión (Avanzado)’, donde debe alternar entre ‘Mostrar un enlace” unirse desde su navegador “.
“Verifique que la configuración esté habilitada. Si la configuración está deshabilitada, haga clic en el botón Estado para habilitarla. Si aparece un cuadro de diálogo de verificación, elija Activar para verificar el cambio “, así explica Zoom el proceso en un texto de ayuda en su sitio web.
¡Pero hay más! Hacer todo lo que realmente no bloquea el cambio en su lugar para todos los usuarios.
En el lado derecho de la palanca hay un pequeño candado gris tenue, entrecerrar los ojos y lo perderá, en el que debe hacer clic si desea que esta configuración sea obligatoria para todos los usuarios, y luego haga clic en “Bloquear” para confirmar el cambio.
Entonces dos clics más.
También es posible mostrar el enlace del navegador para todas las reuniones organizadas por miembros de un grupo específico, lo que se puede hacer a través de ‘Administración de grupos’ y luego haciendo clic en el nombre del grupo, seguido de la pestaña ‘Configuración’ (luego repitiendo pasos anteriores).
Y para sus propias reuniones de Zoom: al iniciar sesión en su cuenta, haga clic en ‘Configuración de Mis reuniones’ (si es administrador) o ‘Mis reuniones’ (si no es así), luego navegue hasta ‘Mostrar una “Únase desde su navegador “Opción de enlace” en la pestaña “Reunión”, en “En reunión (Avanzado)”, como antes.
Si la opción de mostrar un enlace del navegador aparece completamente atenuada, se ha bloqueado en el nivel de cuenta o grupo, según el documento de ayuda de Zoom, por lo que primero deberá cambiarlo en el nivel de la cuenta o contactar a su administrador para solicitar el cambio.
Si puede encontrarlo, el sitio web de Zoom tiene una página de información sobre su cliente web, donde recomienda usar Google Chrome para obtener la máxima funcionalidad.
Pero también puede unirse desde Firefox, Safari, Edge o Internet Explorer. ¿Quién necesita una aplicación?

Vive con el Dr. Anthony Fauci, el principal experto en enfermedades infecciosas de EE. UU., Para conocer lo que todos podemos hacer para combatir la propagación del coronavirus (COVID-19).
La conversación es parte del impulso reciente de Facebook para poner información COVID-19 de las autoridades sanitarias establecidas al frente y en el centro en la plataforma en un esfuerzo por obtener buena información en manos de los usuarios mientras se mitiga la información errónea potencialmente peligrosa que podría empeorar los resultados a medida que el nuevo coronavirus se propaga por todo el mundo.

Instagram finalmente se está preparando para copiar la característica más popular de Snapchat, y una de las pocas que aún no ha clonado. Instagram ha creado un prototipo de una función de mensajería de texto efímera inédita que borra el hilo del chat cada vez que la abandonas, confirma un vocero de Facebook a TechCrunch. Eso podría hacer que los usuarios se sientan más cómodos con chats rápidos, tontos, vulnerables o arriesgados, lo que aumenta las notificaciones de respuesta que mantienen a las personas abriendo Instagram todo el día.

Instagram ya tiene mensajes de foto y video que desaparecen y lanzado en febrero de 2018 para permitir a los usuarios elegir si los socios de chat pueden "ver una vez", "permitir la reproducción" varias veces durante un período limitado o "mantener el chat" permanentemente. Técnicamente, podría usar el modo Crear para superponer palabras sobre un fondo de color para enviar un texto efímero, pero de lo contrario debe usar la función "Enviar" que notifica a otras personas en el hilo.

Pero hoy, el especialista en ingeniería inversa y el tipster favorito de TechCrunch Jane Manchun Wong desenterró algo nuevo. Enterrado en el código de la aplicación de Android está el nuevo modo " ud83d ude4a", etiquetado en el código con el emoji de mono "no hables mal".

Cómo funcionan los mensajes que desaparecen de Instagram
norte
Cuando los usuarios ingresan a este modo deslizando hacia arriba desde el hilo de mensajes de Instagram Direct, son llevados a una ventana de mensajes en modo oscuro que comienza como un hilo de mensajes vacío. Cuando los usuarios cierran esta ventana, cualquier mensaje de ellos o de sus compañeros de chat desaparece. U00a0 La función funciona de manera similar a Snapchat, que borra un chat después de que todos los miembros de un hilo lo hayan visto y cerrado la ventana de chat.

Así es como funcionan los mensajes de desaparición de Instagram

La función de mensajería efímera actualmente no está disponible públicamente, pero Facebook El portavoz me confirma que están trabajando en ello internamente. "Siempre estamos explorando nuevas funciones para mejorar su experiencia de mensajería. Esta característica todavía está en desarrollo temprano y no se está probando externamente ". La empresa después tuiteó la confirmación. No dieron ninguna indicación de una línea de tiempo para si o cuándo podría lanzarse oficialmente. Algunas características nunca salen de la fase de prototipo, pero otras, incluidas muchas vistas por Wong, terminan siendo implementadas varios meses después.

Instagram ha tenido un gran éxito al usar Snapchat como laboratorio de investigación y desarrollo de productos. La versión de Instagram de Stories se disparó a 500 millones de usuarios diarios en comparación con solo 218 millones de usuarios en Snapchat en general.

los Comisión Europea está presionando Netflix y otras plataformas de transmisión para cambiar a la definición estándar durante los períodos de mayor demanda, ya que la crisis del coronavirus impone una carga sin precedentes en la infraestructura de Internet.
norte
A través de Unión Europea - una región con alrededor de 445 millones de ciudadanos - u00a0 es probable que muchos millones de trabajadores de oficina cambien al teletrabajo, ya que los países imponen medidas de cuarentena e instruyen a las personas a trabajar desde casa siempre que sea posible. La propia Comisión Europea, que emplea a alrededor de 32,000 personas, u00a0movió a todo el personal no crítico al trabajo remoto Al comienzo de esta semana.

Yesterday Thierry Breton, the commissioner for the EU’s internal market who is also a former CEO of France Telecom, tweeted that he’d spoke to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings para defender la transmisión de definición estándar por defecto durante la crisis de salud pública de COVID-19.
Un portavoz de Breton nos dijo que la Comisión está invitando a las plataformas de transmisión a seguir el ejemplo de los proveedores de telecomunicaciones y considerar adaptar el rendimiento de la transmisión de video, como pasar temporalmente a la transmisión SD en lugar de HD, al menos para las horas de trabajo más críticas.
n
En la llamada de Breton con Netflix, se discutieron una serie de posibles medidas, según el portavoz, incluido un cambio automático a la definición estándar durante los picos de las actividades de Internet en geografías impactadas, que según la Comisión representa una "opción responsable", que ayudará a asegurar las infraestructuras de telecomunicaciones mientras "sigue ofreciendo el mejor servicio a usuarios y consumidores, sin interrupciones".
n
Añadió que muchos proveedores de contenido y aplicaciones ya están aplicando este tipo de medida de flexibilidad.
n
The Commission is also asking telecoms operators that provide Internet services to take steps to prevent and mitigate the impacts of impending network congestion, by inviting them to make use of “possibilities” offered by EU net neutrality rules.
n
Earlier this week Vodafone reported a 50% surge in Internet traffic in some European countries as scores of people logged on from home. u201cCovid-19 is already having a significant impact on our services and placing a greater demand on our network,u201d the company said in a statement, adding that: u201cWe should expect this trend of data growth to continue.”
n
Al mismo tiempo, la Comisión pide a los usuarios de Internet en la región que hagan un uso responsable de las actividades recreativas en línea, como optar por configuraciones que reducen el consumo de datos, incluido el uso de Wi-Fi (en lugar de datos móviles) y elegir una resolución más baja para contenido siempre que sea posible.
n
Quiere una acción conjunta de todas las partes interesadas para aliviar la presión sobre la infraestructura y facilitar el trabajo remoto y la educación en línea en un momento de crisis de salud pública en toda la región.
n
In a statement Breton added: u201cEurope and the whole world are facing an unprecedented situation. Los gobiernos han tomado medidas para reducir las interacciones sociales para contener la propagación de Covid-19 y alentar el trabajo remoto y la educación en línea. Plataformas de transmisión, operadores de telecomunicaciones y usuarios, todos tenemos la responsabilidad conjunta de tomar medidas para garantizar el buen funcionamiento de Internet durante la batalla contra la propagación del virus ".
n
No está claro exactamente qué margen de maniobra prevé la Comisión en las normas de neutralidad de la red de la UE para priorizar ciertos tipos de tráfico sobre otros durante la crisis del coronavirus.
n
We asked Breton’s spokesman for clarification on this point but he responded by emphasizing that the Commission is hoping to steer off such a scenario, telling us: “By calling for all stakeholdersu2019 responsibility (platforms/telcos/users) we are proactively ensuring smooth functioning of the Internet so that the question of prioritization does not need to be asked.”
n
También nos comunicamos con Netflix para preguntar qué pasos está tomando para ayudar a administrar la demanda de ancho de banda en la región. Al momento de escribir esto, la compañía no había respondido.
n
El portavoz de Breton dijo que el comisionado debe realizar una llamada de seguimiento con Hastings en los próximos días.
n
En términos más generales, la Comisión está trabajando en la creación de un mecanismo de información para garantizar un seguimiento regular de la situación del tráfico de Internet en cada Estado miembro a fin de poder responder rápidamente a los problemas de capacidad, en contacto con el Cuerpo de Reguladores Europeos de Comunicaciones Electrónicas y con el apoyo de las autoridades reguladoras nacionales.
n
También nos hemos puesto en contacto con YouTube para comentar sobre el llamado de la Comisión a la acción proactiva de las plataformas de transmisión para ayudar a gestionar una mayor demanda en la infraestructura de Internet.

Wag !, el cuidado de mascotas La compañía conocida por conectar a los dueños de mascotas con paseadores de perros locales, ha sufrido recientemente una serie de cambios radicales.
n
A fines de noviembre, después de ser nombrado nuevo CEO, mi equipo de administración y yo comenzamos a trazar un camino radicalmente diferente hacia la rentabilidad. Comenzamos evaluando nuestra relación con los usuarios. En primer lugar, reconocimos que Wag! necesitábamos mejorar la forma en que apoyamos a la comunidad, incluidos los padres de mascotas, los cuidadores de mascotas y sus mascotas.
n
Luego, examinamos la salud financiera de la compañía y analizamos el clima competitivo, la comunidad de inversión y la dirección en la que la industria tecnológica parecía estar dirigida. Ha llegado el momento de compartir cómo esto influyó en nuestras decisiones.
n
A finales de 2019, muchas personas inteligentes comenzaron a notar un cambio filosófico que tenía lugar en los mercados de capitales. Los inversores habían comenzado a perder la paciencia con las nuevas empresas que gastaron sumas masivas en adquirir participación de mercado, pero habían demostrado poca o ninguna capacidad para crear negocios duraderos.
n
Llegamos a la conclusión de que la financiación en algunos sectores se agotaría rápidamente. Según nuestro análisis, esperamos que un número creciente de nuevas empresas se vean obligadas a crear nichos de negocios autosuficientes para sobrevivir. Esta evaluación es en parte lo que nos llevó a concluir que aceptar otra ronda de financiamiento no necesariamente beneficiaría a la compañía en el área que más importa: proporcionar valor a los clientes.
n
Se llegó a un consenso después de que tomamos el control, y encontramos un ritmo constante de facturas entrantes y salientes, en particular a Amazon (Servicios web), Google (para ayudar a extender nuestra marca), Facebook (para llegar a los clientes) y para nuestro espacio de oficina . Estos costos estaban creciendo más rápido que los ingresos.

Instead of accepting more investment, we chose to cut costs. This included a consolidation of some of our offices and a painful 76% reduction of our workforce.

Como los organizadores cancelan events with massive attendance, like SXSW (400,000 attendees), E3 (66,000), GDC (65,000) and Congreso Mundial de Telefonía Móvil (100,000), mobile game developers have felt the crunch. At a show like SXSW, larger developers can spend more than $135,000 just to secure some real estate.
n
A pesar del alto costo, si eres un desarrollador, estos eventos pueden ser valiosos para generar conciencia, comentarios y descargas de clientes. Los comentarios en tiempo real de los asistentes, la capacidad de inscribir a los usuarios para las campañas beta, las oportunidades para impulsar el marketing por correo electrónico posterior y el prestigio de tener su aplicación en vivo al lado de juegos producidos por estudios más grandes son cualidades únicas.
n
Aún no está claro si los desarrolladores que hicieron inversiones recuperarán los costos, como los de promoción en el sitio, publicidad impresa, personal para los puestos y reservas en restaurantes. Igualmente, si no es más importante, es la capa adicional de costo de oportunidad para los desarrolladores, especialmente aquellos que buscaron usar estos eventos para lanzar algo nuevo.
n
¿Qué tan importantes son los momentos de lanzamiento para los desarrolladores de juegos? Durante la Game Developers Conference 2019, se anunció un nuevo puerto de Cuphead para Nintendo Switch. Per Google Trends, web searches for the game reached their second-highest point of the year during the event (March 20th), only behind search volume of the gameu2019s release a month later, in April 2019.
n
Los grandes desarrolladores pueden salir ilesos de la cancelación de una feria comercial y simplemente patear el momento del lanzamiento para su próximo gran evento de campaña. But for smaller app or game developers that canu2019t wait another six months for their launch moment, they need to do something.

Aquí hay cinco formas de salvar un lanzamiento perdido debido a la cancelación de una feria comercial.

Large developers can come out unscathed, but smaller apps and developers who canu2019t wait six months for their launch moment need to do something.

Hello and welcome back to our regular morning look at private companies, public markets and the gray space in between.
n
Hoy estamos analizando el mundo de la inversión de capital riesgo de los deportes electrónicos, en gran medida a través de la lente de preliminar datos que vamos a advertir dada la forma en que los datos de VC reportados retrasan la realidad Es probable que ese fenómeno sea doblemente cierto en el momento actual, ya que COVID-19 absorbe todos los ciclos de noticias y algunos anuncios de rondas de riesgo son retrasado incluso más de lo habitual.
n
De todos modos, los datos que tenemos pintan una imagen de un cambio en la inversión de riesgo de esports, uno de tamaño suficiente para indicar que una desaceleración de VC de eSports podría estar en marcha. Como con todas las primeras apariencias, nos estamos extendiendo para llegar a una conclusión. Pero ... sin riesgo, sin recompensa.
n
Comenzaremos observando los totales de la empresa de esports del primer trimestre de 2020 hasta la fecha, comparándolos con los resultados del año anterior, y luego echaremos un vistazo a los resultados del cuarto trimestre de 2019 y su comparación del año anterior para saber qué más ha sucedido últimamente en el nicho. La imagen que dibujan los trimestres nos ayudará a comprender cómo la inversión en deportes electrónicos está comenzando un año que no está yendo como todos esperaban.

Hoy estamos utilizando datos de Crunchbase, analizando los totales de riesgo tanto globales como específicos de EE. UU. tanto en volumen redondo como en dólares. Para tener una idea del mundo competitivo de los juegos, estamos examinando las inversiones en empresas que están etiquetadas como "esports"Relacionado en la base de datos Crunchbase. Dado que este es un corte algo amplio, los datos a continuación son más direccionales que precisos y deben tratarse como tales.

Todos saben eso press features donu2019t drive sustainable traffic. Pero siguen siendo importantes por una simple razón: las ventas requieren confianza. La confianza es transitiva. Y la prensa es de confianza.
n
Press features validate the legitimacy of a company, lend it authority, and ultimately lead others to trust it more.
n
Iu2019ve seen this first hand, having gone from being an unknown outsider to becoming the most popular expert in the world in my space u2014 contributing articles to 14 publications and driving more than 37,000 prospective customers per month to my blog.
n
In this article, youu2019ll learn the steps I took over the last year to go from being unknown to expert, and how this strategy has helped me open doors and close deals. Todo a partir de esta estrategia simple que usé para construir mi propia autoridad en la industria y aprovechar la prensa en la que la gente confiaba para construir autoridad y construir SEO.
n
Inicialmente descubrí esta estrategia por frustración. The businesses that I was selling to didnu2019t trust me because I was an outsider. I didnu2019t have credibility in my industry. I didnu2019t have status symbols people associate with trustworthiness.
n
De hecho, tuve lo contrario. Dejé la escuela secundaria en el décimo grado. Nunca fui a la universidad. Nunca había trabajado para una gran empresa. Y nuestros clientes en los primeros días eran algunos pequeños independientes. So people didnu2019t trust me enough to trust that my technology would work for them. Iu2019d often be denied sales opportunities as a result.
n
La pregunta era, ¿cómo podría cambiar eso y ser confiable antes de que comience el proceso de ventas? Porque eso, sospechaba, era cómo podría comenzar a cerrar más negocios. Esta estrategia fue mi solución a esas frustraciones repetidas y desde entonces ha llevado a acuerdos con marcas de miles de millones de dólares y pequeñas marcas por igual. Incluso impresionó a las personas que terminaron respaldando mi empresa.

Back in febrero research analysts Bernstein estimated the company had pulled in more active users in two months of 2020 than in the whole of 2019, citing data from Apptopia which builds models fed by an SDK that tracks downloads across a large network of third party apps — suggesting Zoom had added 2.22M monthly active users by the end of February vs onboarding 1.99M in the whole of 2019.
n
In total they estimated Enfocar had 12.92M MAUs, up 21% since the end of 2019.
n
Thing is, you don’t actually have to download Zoom’s app to use the videoconferencing tool — it can work in a browser.
n
Beat Zoom’s dark pattern — join from your browser
n
The option for joining a Zoom meeting in a browser is just really well hidden unless the meeting host has tweaked default settings.
n
Like literally hidden until after you’ve clicked to join a meeting — when the option to join via a browser appears in tiny text underneath a more prominent link to “download & run Zoom”.
n
n
Either it’s really terrible UX or a dark pattern intended to drive app downloads.
n
Hiding the option to join a Zoom call in a browser is suboptimal to say the least, given many home workers will be using corporate laptops that lock down app downloads to shrink security risks. (And COVID-19 has plenty of cyber risk attached to it.)
n
It’s also simply disproportionate to require downloading an app to join a call. Zoom should be shouting about the added benefits of using its app — which does support more features — rather than trying to trick users into thinking they have no choice but to download it if they want to make a meeting.
n
Zoom’s approach looks irresponsible, per some critics, as it can result in frustrated participants choosing to dial in to a meeting instead — thereby missing out on the ability to see multimedia content such as slides. And when the world is dealing with a global health crisis that’s really not great.
n
Circumventing Zoom’s dark pattern means keeping your eyes peeled for a tiny text link to “join from your browser” — and clicking the hell out of it.
n
Those who are hosting Zoom meetings can improve a disingenuous situation by diving into settings and toggling them so that the “join from your browser” link is automatically displayed — instead of requiring participants attempt to download Zoom first before it will appear.
n
n
Play a game of find and click the tiny padlock
n
To make this change you need to go to your Zoom account settings, navigate to the ‘Meeting’ tab, then ‘In Meeting (Advanced)’ — where you should find a toggle to ‘Show a “join from your browser” link’.
n
“Verify that the setting is enabled. If the setting is disabled, click the Status toggle to enable it. If a verification dialog displays, choose Turn On to verify the change,” is how Zoom explains the process in a help text on its website.
n
But there’s more! Doing all that does not actually lock the change in place for all users.
n
To the right hand side of the toggle is a tiny, faint grey padlock — squint and you’ll miss it — which you have to click on if you want to make this setting mandatory for all users, and then click “Lock” to confirm the change.
n
So two more clicks.
n
n
It’s also possible to show the browser link for all meetings hosted by members of a specific group — which can be done via ‘Group Management’, and then clicking on the name of the group, followed by the ‘Settings’ tab (then repeating the above steps).
n
And for your own Zoom meetings — by signing into your account, clicking on the ‘My Meetings Settings’ (if you’re an admin) or ‘My Meetings’ (if not), then navigating to the ‘Show a “Join from your browser” Link’ option on the ‘Meeting’ tab, under ‘In Meeting (Advanced)’, as before.
n
Should the option to show a browser link appear entirely greyed out it’s been locked at the account or group level, per Zoom’s help docu00a0 — so you’ll either need to change it at the account level first or contact your adminstrator to request the change.
n
If you’re able to find it Zoom’s website has a page of information about its web client — where it recommends using Google Chrome to get maximum functionality.
n
But you can also join from Firefox, Safari, Edge or Internet Explorer. Who needs an app?
