Imagine this for a moment: What if the COVID-19 crisis came with its bag and baggage ten years ago? Social distancing back would be different from what we have today.

By clicking on the Collaborative Playlist, copy the link from the same menu. Send it to your friends and colleagues; they can even add tracks using their Spotify account.
Phone a Friend
This is not a new app or a new website you have to visit. Pick up your phone and call a friend. It might be awkward if you’re not used to talking. For most people, hearing our friends’ voices is the next-best thing to hanging out in person.
Social distancing should never take away the connection. Whether you’re working from home or not, stay in touch using these mediums, and you’d be happy getting tasks done amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
