You can now spend over 40 minutes on Zoom for Thanksgiving

By News Nov 17, 2020 | 8:08 AM

With top health experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci strongly urging people to forgo holiday gatherings with loved ones during the pandemic, many are opting to settle in for a quiet meal at home with members of their household only, perhaps with plans to hold a Zoom call with relatives far and near. Well, the fine folks at Zoom want to show their gratitude so for Thanksgiving Day only, they’re nixing that 40-minute call limit on free accounts.

The unlimited Zoom calling will run from 12:00 a.m. on November 26 through 6:00 a.m. on November 27, giving users 30 hours of endless gabbing with family and friends. It’s a true blessing and may likely go a long way in helping people make the decision to substitute a digital gathering for a traditional, in-person affair. It’s also a pretty powerful statement about the bizarre and uncharted territory we’re entering this holiday season.
