Listen now
Description
In this episode, we dive into how makers are utilizing NoCode to help their neighborhoods respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Chris Dancy is known to many as “the Most Connected Man on Earth." However, this Houston, Texas maker is using NoCode to bring calm in the midst of chaos. He has used a NoCode stack comprising of Airtable, Zapier, and Nextdoor to build the COVID-19 Neighborhood Volunteer and Support System. Chris has built the tool as a template to help his neighborhood as well as anyone trying to develop a localized response to the pandemic. Right now, you can actually copy and customize this template to suit your specific needs.  We also have David Peterson from Airtable's London office, as well as Armel Beaudry from Trebble.FM. We discuss the impact of COVID-19; Chris' Habit Store for thriving in an environment of information overload; and using technology to become the best versions of ourselves.  This episode was recorded about a week before the US government approved a $2 Trillion Stimulus Package to combat COVID-19. We also have video of this session, which we are to make available on our YouTube channel, so you can watch Chris' demo.
