Face-to-face meetings is bogging the team down on a weekly basis and Waking Up wants to change that. Looking at the company website, they don't currently offer any form of online media resources for their meetings, they are lacking in keeping up with the trend of meeting online. Using these resources will not only help Waking Up Inc. but also their customers. It is essential that they find a resource that is reliable, has rich features, easy to use, and low cost video chat. ]]> 2018-03-16 00:23:30 UTC https://padlet.com/alexiavmincitar/pbx37p2raeny/wish/242635016 alexiavmincitar https://padlet.com/alexiavmincitar/pbx37p2raeny/wish/242635073 Some of the top two resources that Waking Up, Inc. can consider for online media resources are:

• Skype: Skype is a great Internet based communication tool with a cheap subscription. People can chat and video conference through Skype.
• LiveJournal: It is more of a blog and connecting with communities of people with similar interests rather than a VoIP/real-time virtual communication. Through LiveJournal, people create their own blogs and communities.
• Facebook: The social media application not only has a chat room where you can share files, pictures, money, and send stickers to express emotions but it also has the additional features of voice calls and video calls.
