If working from home for the last year taught us anything, it s our webcams, and lighting setups suck. Granted, I podcast every week, so I tend to be the exception with my Logitech BRIO 4K, HyperX QuadCast microphone, and colossal studio light.
But Lume Cube can do it all for you with its very handy Broadcast Lighting Kit, which makes you look like a pro without taking up a lot of desktop space. It s such a great addition to my kit that I ll be using it when I take road trips, but I also want to hop on a conference call, do an interview, or a podcast.
Internet Explorer has lived a long, healthy life.

Press F to pay respects to Internet Explorer 11, as it will soon be heading to Valhalla. Microsoft announced in a blog post that Internet Explorer is out and that Edge is the browser of the future.
In its blog post, Microsoft reminds users that Edge has an IE mode for whenever they need to access legacy apps and websites, so in a way, IE isn t really going anywhere. Except that it is: The Internet Explorer 11 desktop app itself will lose support and be formally retired on June 15, 2022.
Zoom has a new product called Zoom Events.
It allows for ticket sales, event hub building, informal chat hosting, and more.
It s meant to expand the conferencing capabilities of the Zoom communications platform.
Zoom Events is not yet live, but it s coming soon, and it promises to be an all-in-one platform that gives you the tools to create engaging virtual experiences that attendees will love. In short, it s hoping to make remote conferencing closer to its real-life counterpart than ever before.
Zoom Events will allow for ticket sales and registration for events, all customizable by those creating the gatherings as though they were renting out a real venue with limited seating. The new platform will also offer users a hub where they can list upcoming events to let people know what s coming next and when. And events will be shared to a public directory so that, just like a real event, passersby can discover them organically.
