In these disruptive times of the Coronavirus pandemic, when everyone is practising self-imposed isolation and social distancing, Netflix presents a terrific idea to bring the zing back into your social lives — but, remotely. Netflix Party is the name of the game – the next big thing from the streaming giant.
Netflix Party allows you to connect with your friends through a common link and any number of you can watch movies and shows together, sitting in the safety of your own spaces. You can chat via text messages with all those who are connected, and directly on your screens too — no need for WhatsApp.
Netflix Party thus allows you to maintain social distances, as mandated by health professionals, and be socially connected too, as our social human nature tells us to do. All that one requires to get their own Netflix Party going is Google Chrome on their computer or laptop.
Here’s Netflix’s official description for Netflix Party –
‘Netflix Party is a new way to watch Netflix with your friends online. Netflix Party synchronizes video playback and adds group chat to your favorite Netflix shows.
How it works –
1. Install Netflix Party
2. Open a Netflix video
3. Create your party
4. Join a Netflix Party’
Easy enough, ain’t it? Netflix Party will certainly go a long way in easing the feeling of isolation and desperation that is bound to set in after several days of social distancing.
