With Covid cases hitting an all time high and the second wave in full swing just in time for the Thanksgiving, there are many tools in this digital age that can help us to have a safe and happy holiday. There are a number of guides to help people host a fully remote Thanksgiving thanks to The New York Times and Mashable.
For me here are the top tips:
- Use a good video chat platform: Microsoft has launched a lower tier free version of their business product for up to 300 people and 24 hour use. Better than having to keep resending Zoom links every 45 minutes!
- Pre-order the meal online and save the hassle and mess in the kitchen: Grub Guides offers a range of choices in NYC
- Host a digital movie screening: Disney+ offers a GroupWatch feature or Amazon Prime has Watch Party
- Enjoy some remote games post dinner: My personal favorites: Online Codesnames (free) and you can add your own words or all the rage with the younger generation, Among Us ($5 flat fee app) but very addictive
Happy Thanksgiving! Hopefully this helps make holiday in the time of Covid a little bit brighter!
