COVID-19 dramatically impacted how we live, learn, work, socialize, shop, and entertain ourselves. It has also changed how we interact with our favorite stores, restaurants, and service providers – even our healthcare providers. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone who hasn’t had a virtual doctor appointment, ordered groceries online, or used curbside pickup in 2020.

This was a year when it felt like history was unfolding in real time – rather than the narrative of our time taking shape gradually over months and years, events were seemingly getting inscribed straight into the collective memory every day, or sometimes every hour.
