Headsets, lock-down habits & money [S18E05]

Listen Later

Many thanks to Mark, the Audio Wrangler, our editor for the last 5 years. Here's to the next 5 (and sorry for all you put up with).

This week the team discuss:

  • The best microphones for video conferencing whilst home working - What works best from home for both comfort and performance, what products have the team chosen and some pitfalls to avoid.
  • Satya Nadella's observation that Covid-19 has produced "2 years digital adoption in 2 months" - How has this rapid change in working arrangements for many been a "massive forced experiment" and what behaviour changes might be permanent?
  • Real-time banking and money management - How some FinTech products and challenger banks are now providing real-time data to connected services, and how this makes money management quicker and more effective.

    • Let us know your thoughts on these subjects or anything you'd like to hear covered in future via the website or Twitter.
