When you’re on a Zoom call, in the bottom left of the screen you’ll see a “START/STOP VIDEO” button. Now call me old school but I think I’d rather look at a pretty picture which is why I’ve started hunting out travel themed Zoom backgrounds. So on the next Zoom call everyone changed their backgrounds to various meats. I had one meeting where my boss had decided to do a background of a desert canyon, but someone mistook the close up of the rocks to be meat. Plus the more meetings you go to, the more creativity you’ll see from people. While they might be nice, you’ll be sick of them after the first week. There are currently three options: the Golden Gate bridge, blades of grass or the Earth from space. It does, however the options are very limited. Zoom is an online video conferencing tool that has become a lot of people’s lifelines in 2020 when going out and seeing real people in public hasn’t always been possible. I think the biggest Zoom meeting I’ve been in so far has had almost 200 people in it. The quality is better, the options are better, and if you’re part of a company like me that has the premium version then there are additional features like chat and the ability for longer calls with more people.

If you don’t already have Zoom, it’s like Skype…but better. So today I’m going to share some of my favorite new travel themed Zoom backgrounds. Our indoor lives are mundane enough right now that I think it’s time to jazz up your Zoom background.

But I know for sure after almost two months of this that people are getting sick of seeing the boring wall behind my head, or my office bookcase. I can’t tell you how many virtual happy hours I’ve attended since March. I use Zoom at work for our meetings, people use it for online classes or even for keeping in touch with family or friends. If I could have bought stocks in any company 6 months ago you can be sure it would be Zoom (#missedopportunity). I appreciate your support.Īnyone who’s anyone is using Zoom right now.
