The Really Useful Podcast

Lockdowns, social distancing, and a need for communication - we look at how Facebook is the hub of global communication in 2020.

Show Notes

It has been one of the most unusual years in recorded history. But linking us together during lockdowns, social distancing, travel restrictions, and more, has been Facebook. Groups supporting mental health, messenger rooms for vital social and family contact, and even the ability to watch videos together with "watch parties" have all been embraced.

Facebook is far from perfect. But it continues to offer these methods of group contact to help you stay in touch during the lonely, frustrating times.

This week's show is brought to you by Christian Cawley and Megan Ellis. You can contact them on Twitter as @thegadgetmonkey and @Megg_Ellis with your suggestions for future topics.
