Google Gets Grandparents Video Chatting

Google launched a grandparent's guide to Google Chat to help the older generation keep in touch with the more tech savvy grandchildren and friends. The YouTube video explains the required equipment--microphone and camera--and steps to start talking online. Jason Toff, Google grandson of Evelyn and Ida, tells us after your grandma is all set up, "take a screenshot of you video chatting with her and email it to grammy324@gmail.com to share it with us."

The first 100 people to do so will get a T-shirt, printable guide and VHS of the video, Toff writes "because if your grandma’s like mine, she’s still a cassette kind of girl."
