In this episode, I fly solo to discuss Google Vids. Google Vids is an addition to Google Workspace via Google Labs. It is a tool that allows users to create videos effortlessly through the use of Google's AI LLM, Google Gemini. I go through how to create a video, the editing process, and ideas for educators to implement this as a time saver. If you'd like to see it in action, click on the YouTube video below for a video tutorial. If your organization doesn't have Google Labs turned on, you might want to talk to your district Google Admin to see about getting this AI video creator turned on. Buen provecho!

This week on The Chrome Cast, we spend our time talking through two main topics. The first is our thoughts on the new, high-end, modular Framework Laptop Chromebook Edition. Our review dropped this week and, as always, we have some thoughts. For a device built to be deconstructed and upgraded, this one is pretty sleek and fun to use. The second half of the podcast ended up being taken up by an editorial idea that was published this week as well here at Chrome Unboxed. The premise is simple: why are $1000+ Android tablets accepted while $999 Chromebooks are considered by many to be ridiculous? It's a strange duality for sure, and it leads to some intersecting discussion. Links Why is $1000 acceptable for an Android tablet, but not a well-made Chromebook?

This week on The Chrome Cast, we begin the show by discussing all the new leaks surrounding Google's upcoming Pixel lineup. Between the release date of the Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold leaking to the newly-rumored, lower price tag for the Pixel Fold and interesting price point on the Pixel 7a, there are quite a few interesting things to discuss as we inch closer to a deeper understanding at Google I/O 2023 in just under 7 weeks from now. For the second half of the show, we delve a bit into the shake-up that is happening with AI – both ChatGPT and Google's Bard – and then shift into a discussion around the importance of a game as big as Minecraft being tailor-made for Chromebooks. It's a fun show this week! Links Unleash the trifecta: Pixel Watch, Pixel Buds, and Pixel Phone deals you can't miss!

This week on The Chrome Cast, the star of the show is – without doubt – the HP Dragonfly Pro Chromebook. And though some odd news about abysmal battery has made waves on the web, the overwhelming response to this device for everyone we've shown it to is massively positive, and we feel that it is the flagship Chromebook we've all been waiting for from Google – just from HP, instead. There's so much good going on with this device that it takes up the entire first half of the show. For the second half, we keep it in new ChromeOS hardware mode as we discuss the many new clues we've found for the upcoming detachable tablet Chromebooks that should branch off of the ‘Geralt' baseboard. One of those looks to be a successor to the pretty-awesome Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5, and if that device gets a follow-up with a handful of improvements, we're all in for a treat.

This week on The Chrome Cast podcast, we're back with another interview episode, and this time around, we had the privilege of chatting with Jenn Chen, Product Designer and Head of UX Design & Research for ChromeOS at Google. Jenn has been working on ChromeOS for over a decade and has a vast understanding of the OS so needless to say, it was an honor to have her on the show. For this episode, we decided to go with our "5 Questions" format that you might recall us using in our interview with Alex Kuscher back in March 2022. We dug into how ChromeOS design philosophies have changed over time, building for multiple form factors, cross-pollination with other Google teams, how they are thinking about pre-installed apps vs. those built by third-party developers, and how Jenn is thinking about the future of ChromeOS design. Jenn is so knowledgeable about the OS and how it has evolved so even if you aren't into UX or interested in OS design, I think you will still find this episode very fascinating.

This week on The Chrome Cast, we begin the show with discussion around the latest renders that have leaked for the upcoming Pixel Fold. Though this foldable phone from Google isn't due until May (according to the rumors), the substantial leaks have truly begun. With these latest renders, we get a video and some specific measurements for the chassis and screen. From there we move on to the new features that snuck into ChromeOS 108. On the surface this seemed like a tiny update, but there were some nice little features sprinkled here and there that are worth noting for sure. We close things up by talking about Fortnite's new Season 4 graphics overhaul and how you can experience it in its full fidelity on a Chromebook.

This week on The Chrome Cast, our discussion revolves almost completely around our picks for Best Chromebooks of 2022. We just recently published a video and post rounding all these devices up, so you should definitely hit the show notes and watch that. For the podcast, we list those devices, but each of us choose two of our most favorite Chromebooks of the year and explain why they made the list.

This week on The Chrome Cast, we start the show by talking through a bunch of new accessories that have hit the market for the Pixel Watch. Though this is the tip of the iceberg and many more are likely on the way, it is great to see some truly useful additions for Google's new wearable from 3rd party companies already hitting virtual store shelves. After that, we move on to discuss some interesting things we learned while up in NYC earlier this month. During our time at Google's offices, we were able to have a lengthy discussion about ChromeOS Flex and the methods that are used to determine what devices get the green check in Google's database of certified devices. Not only does every certified device get run through a massive battery of tests, they are also all there in Google's testing lab, and we got to look around in there a bit. Finally, we cover some notes from the soon-to-released Acer Chromebook 514 GE review that will be out early next week. What Acer has built with this device is nothing short of awesome, and though they set out to create a great cloud gaming Chromebook, they ended up building a fantastic overall device, too.

This week on The Chrome Cast, our discussion mainly revolved around some real-world reactions to services and hardware that have shown up in the past couple of weeks. Between the new gaming Chromebooks, GeForce NOW providing 120Hz gaming for Chromebooks, a Pixel Buds Pro firmware update, and actually spending some time using the Pixel Watch as a daily-wear device, we all obviously have some thoughts. For the first time ever, I'm gaming with regularity on my Chromebook, and the Acer Chromebook 514 GE has been a perfect companion for it. On that same note, the latest Pixel Buds Pro update finally fixed the horrid latency these earbuds shipped with earlier in the year, and after a solid week of actually putting the Pixel Watch on all our wrists on a daily basis, it's clear that though this watch may have a few issues here and there, it is currently an office favorite here at Chrome Unboxed.

In the second half of the show, we dive into quite a few things going on in the Snapdragon Chromebook space. With the Acer Chromebook Spin 513 beginning to show up at retailers, ‘Homestar' getting an OLED screen and a quad speaker setup and Sharp getting into the Chromebook game with its own Snapdragon-powered device, there's a lot going on with Qualcomm and Chrome OS right now. Finally, we discuss NVIDIA's pronouncement of intent to begin shipping their RTX GPUs alongside MediaTek ARM chips.

Though it seems nearly everything you plug into a Chromebook works these days, Google is going the extra step to ease consumers' minds about peripherals that they may come across in a store like Best Buy or Walmart. If it is marked 'Works With Chromebook', then it just works.

This week on The Chrome Cast, we spend our time talking through two confusing segments of the current Chromebook market: tablets and high-end Chromebooks. Both of these categories have great current and upcoming options, but both are likely confusing for consumers on the outside looking in. For tablets, the issue is the lack of options with only one notable upcoming device worth getting hyped about. For high-end Chromebooks, the problem comes down to the fact that great Chromebooks are coming down in price and justifying the extra expense is simply getting tough to do these days.

Sketchnoting, Doodling Recommended apps - bit.ly/SylviaApps iPad ProCreate (paid) - Sylvia’s Favorite, offers voice-recording while screencasting - ProCreate.art Tayasui Sketches School (free) - tayasui.com/sketches - best for younger learners Tayasui Sketches (freemium) - tayasui.com/sketches - offers screen recording, but not voice recording, but you can “hack” that by using the built in screen recorder on newer versionf of iOS touchScreen Chromebook JamBoard - jamboard.google.com - free, easy entry point, but limited art tools AutoDesk SketchBook - SketchBook.com - get from Google Play store, Chromebook would need Android ability, Google Admin would have to turn on your access to the Google Play store Chrome Canvas - canvas.apps.chrome - better art tools that JamBoard, but does not allow zoom in, which is essential Sylvia’s favorite Stylus for use on touchscreen Chromebooks - Stadtler Noris Digital - staedtler.us/en/noris-digital-chromebook What Sylvia looks for in a sketchnoting app - bit.ly/sylviasketchnoteappcriteria KeyNote on iOS - apple.com/keynote Sylvia Duckworth sketchnoting resources - bit.ly/sylviaresources Sylvia’s Question: How can we encourage doodling and sketchnoting in class? Embrace a “Doodling Culture” Growing students’ “Sketchnoting Vocabulary” You need to start out with a small repertoire of icons that you can leverage for multiple meetings Carrie Baughcum - @HeckAwesome YouTube Channel - youtube.com/channel/UC9dE2wlRzY0Lu1IdXnzShxg Board for students to share post-its with icons to share @RoyanLee - #ADoodleADay - sites.google.com/view/sketchlee/doodleaday Beth Matusciwitz - @MrsM_NL #Sketch50 resources - sketch50.org Ideas - Read a story or listen to a song & have students doodle @TechCoachJuarez: Student sketchnotes examples Content from the Duct Taper Community This Week’s Apple Podcast Reviews: T.W.--Baton Rouge EngagEDucate Favorite #EduDuctTape Tweets: (each handle is linked to the mentioned tweet) @MrsTannenb @33heupel @Mo_physics @MarkesLara Where Duct Tapers are listening tweets from: (each handle is linked to the referenced tweet) @jaspang @BryonCar @morgankolis @StacyFord77 New #EduDuctTape Tweeps: @amyjhuckaby, @bmiller_FSTS, @BryonCar #EduDuctTape FlipGrid Response from @AlexisSnider15
Dzięki nowym technologiom, usługom i oprogramowaniu, każdy może dziś byc bohaterem we własnym (i nie tylko!) domu. Wielu z nas, zwłaszcza tych bardziej technicznych, wśród rodziny i znajomych jest postrzeganych jako informatycy, specjaliści na których można liczyć, gdy pojawi się kłopot z komputerem lub innym akcesorium. Zgodnie ze starą prawdą, która głosi, że w 90% przypadków źródło problemów informatycznych znajduje się między komputerem a oparciem krzesła, często udaje się wiele takich sytuacji szybko naprawić lub nawet zadbać o to, by się nie pojawiły. W najświeższym kompocie dyskutujemy o tym, jak można zdalnie administrować sprzętem z nadgryzionym jabłkiem oraz co ułatwia zarządzanie i konfigurację sprzętu, który trafia do nas pod opiekę. Tradycyjnie – linki – aplikacje dla macOS/iOS wspierające pracę administratora: TeamViewer, Apple Remote Desktop, Microsoft Remote Desktop macOS/iOS, Screens, SSH: Panic Prompt 2 / Blink Shell, Hewlett Packard Integrated Lights Out iLO, Parallels Access, Google Admin, Office 365 Admin, UniFi Network, Apple AirPort Utility macOS/iOS, WiFiPerf, Network Tools, Fring, RBL Status, Nice Trace, Net Status, Scany, Deep Whois, Deep Dig, Speedtest, LanScan, NetSpot, Network Radar, Debookee, jamf, Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager, Pulseway, Apple Configurator, Netop Vision.
