If you're missing working in the office, this website generates ambience noise like you are in one, including colleagues speaking! 😂:
The site, created by Fred Wordie, Ben Olayinka, and Valentin Cheli of Berlin-based creative agency Kids, shows an open office plan filled with familiar sights: a conference table, meeting rooms, a copier, desks. The default level of sound assumes you share the space with five colleagues: low talking, an A/C unit, intermittent footsteps.
You can add more sounds by clicking on various icons around the office or increase the ambient noise level by adding more colleagues.

New York couples can now tie the knot over Zoom:
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has signed an order allowing online marriages, as many weddings are cancelled under lockdown restrictions.
From now on, people in the US state will be able to apply for marriage licences remotely and clerks allowed to conduct ceremonies virtually.
The decision comes after New York state extended lockdown measures until 15 May. More than 13,000 people have died of coronavirus in New York city alone.
