This episode marks the 20th episode of SisterCodes in 2020! We reflect on our years, the things we were happy to accomplish, the challenges we faced and what we're looking forward to in 2021!

Sistercodes is very active on Instagram and we wanted to do a whole episode dedicated to the women in tech IG community! The #WIT IG community is so supportive, kind, and uplifting and we are both so thankful for all the friends and support we've received through this community. Thank you all for supporting our podcast and we hope you're all having a wonderful holiday season!

Don't know what presents to buy for the holidays? We've got you covered! In this episode of sistercodes we're sharing our favorite tech products - mostly from small, women-owned businesses! It's so important to shop local, especially this year, and we encourage you to support small businesses that are women-owned and/or owned by POC.

How many ads do you see per day? In 1970 it was 500-1600 ads per day, in 2007 around 5,000 per day, and in 2020 it's estimated that a person sees 6,000-10,000 ads per day. In this episode of sistercodes, we're talking about the effects of encountering so many ads per day and ways you can limit the personalized ads you see. We also talk about the new Instagram layout (swapped activity with shopping tab), adblocker recommendations, and running ads as content creators.
