Zoom parties! - davester - 04-04-2020

Hey, this is fun! We just had an international zoom party with my California relatives and English cousins. It was great...thirteen people spread across the world, laughing and joking. Definitely a good way to stay in touch now that visits are verboten. We decided to do this again in a month but this time it's going to take the form of a quiz show, with each family making up ten questions. I highly encourage this form of interaction in these isolating times.

These issues, though real, are far overblown.

Think about all of the photobombs in the world...

Glad to hear yours went well! All you need to do to secure is add a password.

I had one with a group of friends that I hadn't seen in years. It's a group that used to meet in person every Friday evening for years, but I haven't been in the area for several years (others have left, too).

It was great.

I like the gallery view...looks like the opening to The Brady Bunch.
