    2020 was a tough year for all, but for Chromebooks, it might actually turn out to be the year where it went mainstream. People are becoming more and more aware of what Chrome OS can do, and that they don't necessarily need a powerful Windows or Mac laptop to do their day to day things. However, not everyone knows all the tips and tricks that can take your Chromebook experience to the next level. In this video, I cover 10 of these tips.

    Following up on a couple of these tips:
    1. If you have multiple Chrome OS devices, your custom wallpaper will automatically sync across them.
    2. When you have multiple languages all set up, you can easily switch between your current one and your most recent one by using Control+space.

    Great video! Quick question off topic - I noticed you are wearing a lavalier microphone and I'm looking for one for my online meetings and classes. What do you recommend? Also, would I need software to filter the microphone sound for background noise or adjust volume?

    • @JoJotheTechie
      @JoJotheTechie  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi, in this video I'm wearing a very inexpensive lav mic which you can find here www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016C4ZG74. However, I've since then switched to a boom microphone only because my hair kept brushing up against the lav mic and making rustling noises, but the mic itself is pretty good. I also have the Purple Panda lav mic www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MSKI46R.
      As far as software, if you are in an area where there's a lot of background noise, I suggest using auphonic.com. It is web based and lets you clean up your audio for free. I think you get about 1-1/2 hours of audio free a month that you can clean up.
