Deliver people offline the great stuff they miss online
|
Many people, in particular elderly, are still not online. It is too difficult for them to get acquainted with all these new technologies. For the remainder of their life, most of them will stay offline. Many of their younger relatives and friends have found the way to the Internet and are very active in finding and creating new online content. Consequently, they miss many of the great stuff that is out on the Internet, stuff they would really enjoy. Wouldn't it be great to offer them the possibility to view this online content in a way they are familiar with? |
EmpaperMe bridges the gap between offline and online people. We allow online family and friends to collaboratively collect content that an offline person they care about would really enjoy. From this content, we design and print a personal magazine and deliver it to the letterbox of the offline person. What a great idea to have online content on paper, content selected by the online people who know you best, content you would otherwise had never access to! |
