With so many of us now working remotely either temporarily or indefinitely, there have been big changes in how we share information with our team and our clients.

A remote work situation means you can’t just pop over to a co-workers desk to see something they need assistance with, your IT person can’t come down to help you and you can’t physically show someone an issue you’re having with some software or a website.

Sometimes you need to share something from your screen that would be too confusing or time-consuming to type out in a email or you aren’t able to schedule a time for a video call. Enter Loom!

Loom is a web app that allows you to record and share video messages of your screen, camera, or both. Their free plan allows you to record videos up to 5 minutes in length that can easily be shared via a link. They have a super handy browser extension that makes creating a screen recording a breeze.

Next time you need to share some info from your screen, we highly recommend Loom for a quick and easy solution.

Do you use Loom? Drop us a line – we would love to hear how it has been working for you.
