Is your mom emotionally attached to the AOL account she created in 1995? Do you have a friend who's convinced that Hotmail is the only mail? Don't worry: Google is here to help.

Aided by a blackboard, slides, and some smiley-face balloons, "intervention specialist" Dr. Richard Muscat provides a tongue-in-cheek tutorial on how to successfully save your loved ones from email obsolescence.
