SLOW Yugma!

November 4, 2007 · 4 Comments

Well, it has been a very busy Sunday.  I went to work for awhile this afternoon to catch up on some paperwork, as well as spent a considerable amount of time on this laptop playing with all of the new tools.  I managed to get my first Yugma session going tonight with Kim, however it was extremely slow.  We are not sure if it is the users or the web.  There seemed to be about a 3 minute delay in what was on the hosts screen to what the guest was seeing.  Is this normal?  If so, I could see this tool becoming very frustrating.  So, needless to say, what we thought we were going to do with it, we did not, we ended up just using skype to communicate with.  Kim was having trouble with her delicious widgit so I walked her successfully through the set up and configuration.  Then, I asked for some guidance with google documents.  It is definitely the settings on my laptop, and having pop up blocks, but for some reason I can’t seem to unblock them.  I will give  that another go around tomorrow.  All in all, a very productive day, because in between all of that I made 2 desserts, a pot of soup, a batch of buns for parent teacher interviews at our school tomorrow and a roast chicken for my own family’s supper tonight.  I think it is time to pack it in for the night!!

    Hi Jolene,

    This is Connie from Yugma. I am interested in learning more about your specific situation. If you would contact me at customerservice@yugma.com, I would appreciate it.

    Rest assured, 3 minutes is not a normal delay :) .

    Thanks!

    When it is working right you should be able to narrate your desktop clicks and your partner should be able to see it without a noticeable delay. It might be your virus checker.

    Whoa you go Martha Stewart!!! Yes Jolene after we get through all of this technolgy stuff, I am going to ask you for some cooking tips. Oh yeah, time management tips too. We will have to give Yugma another go.

    Sounds like a very productive day Jolene. Ah yes, soup making weather is back. I’m planning to make some this weekend.
