Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.     We all have lots of things we’ve collected and saved over the years.   Some have monetary value, many others sentimental value. That’s where a company and app called Artifcts can help.   It lets you attach stories to those objects…that you can pass along to family members …or even use for insurance purposes.  Co-founder Heather Nickerson says the steps are simple…

“First is choosing your object.  Then take a photo and add audio and video if you want to.   You then add the story.  It doesn’t have to be a novel…it could be five words.  My grandmother gave me this.  Or it could be several paragraphs.  And then you upload.”

You decide who to share your artifcts with.   You can get started for free at www.artifcts.com.  The company’s unlimited 89 dollar a year plan can be shared with up to three family members or friends.
