Hello PH! As with most of us, I live quite far away from my grandmom and don't get to see her very often. Video calling apps like Zoom and GMeet have been a saving lifeline for staying in touch during the lockdown. However, it was an absolute struggle to explain these apps to her, and so I decided to solve my own problem. We started out by building simple guides for Zoom and Houseparty that could be consumed in under 5 minutes. But then we asked ourselves, why stop at video? There's a whole range of products that, while common parlance to us, are completely foreign to our grandparents and (as I soon discovered) even our parents. And so, we interviewed our friends and added a larger collection of apps and websites. I hope you share this with your loved ones as we have. P.S We've added a gifting guide of popular D2C brands like Warby Parker and Glossier so grandma knows what to get you come Christmas ;)
