Here at The Loading Zone we love technology and the world wide web, and we know that many young people love using technology. We want to share all the amazing learning and educational YouTube videos and apps that we have collated over the years. Even the fun YouTubers can teach us new things and help with social education.
​
We also know that many young people are very imaginative, creative and love to read, so we've included a section on books and novels, pop culture and games.
​​
​Our reviews have been written by our in-house team of tech-loving young adults. Their insights and experiences are real and valuable.

Isle (They/he) - 20 years old
I’m a neurodivergent australian who is heavily into pop and independent culture. In my personal and spare time I enjoy more creative and stimulating activities like gaming, drawing, writing, cosplaying and tinkering. I like free-roam and building/exploration oriented games like Minecraft, The Legend of Zelda Series, Subnautica and Below Zero, Terraria, Stardew Valley and more. I do a lot of poetry and text-based improv writing online, build my own characters and worlds to pass time.
About Us

Margie (She/her) - not old
Founder of The Loading Zone and mother of an awesome neurodivergent teen. Have undertaken both distance ed and home schooling and would have loved a resource like this. Spent a lot of time looking for easily accessible and engaging online content.

Lucy (She/they) - 23 years old
I’m a neurodivergent former uni student with a passion for storytelling. In my spare time, I like to play casual video games like Pokemon, Genshin Impact, Splatoon and the Legend of Zelda. Other hobbies of mine include reading (mostly fantasy or slice of life), writing stories, drawing, cosplay and collecting merchandise from my favourite games and shows. I believe that games, books and other forms of pop culture have the power to tell meaningful, moving stories and build communities, and someday I would love to publish books of my own.
