2016-06-06
okay so Father's Day is coming up and the Google store that is to say the online Google store where you buy like hardware not the Google Play Store where you buy music movies games etc contacted me about sending me a care package to do like a tech for dads type of feature but then I'm thinking to myself Nexus 6p Huawei watch onhub router Google cardboard the new chromecast I'm kind of like well I already have all that stuff or something very similar so I thought to myself who's a super cool dad I know who not only isn't likely to have all that stuff but has probably never even heard of Google and the answer is my grandpa John who is 91 years young do you know what Google is Google okay so last time I tried to get you on the Internet that was about ten years ago that didn't go so well did it you tried very well thank you and you did you did what you have to do you finished it off all right yeah I think you guys cancelled the service within about three months everything we're gonna do today doesn't need the keyboard and doesn't need a mouse you can do everything just by touching that's pretty good cuz yeah I think so nuts I'd say that that's a real adventure something you put in your pocket so tell me how you watch TV just ordinary like we are right now mm-hmm I'm gonna show you how we can use this device and the Internet to actually send a video over to the TV so you slide your finger that way so then I want you to click on YouTube and you wanna do the red one with the triangle oh and then let's say maybe we want to watch um you know CBC News okay there we go all right what oh oh how hard is that to just automatically the Internet ma'am now what we can do is we could watch it on here but that's very small right yeah okay that's not a lot of fun so just touch on this touch on the picture and then do you see that little see that little square on the top there yeah okay you want to touch that one and then you cast to Grandpa cast down here where it says
