Keeping in touch — from a distance

SOCIAL NETWORKING

By Lincoln Spector

Social distancing wearing you down? Consider how much more difficult staying home, possibly for weeks or months, would have been 30 years ago. Without the Internet, we’d be much lonelier.

As never before, video chat services such as Amazon Chime, Apple FaceTime, Facebook, Google Duo, Skype, and Zoom are helping to keep us together. Your family and friends might be spread all over town, the state, the country, or even the world, but thanks to the Web you can still talk to them all face-to-face.

Read the full story in AskWoody Plus Newsletter 17.13.0 (2020-04-06).
