Tech tides turning for boomers and beyond? | Aging In Place Technology Watch

Microsoft's back -- updating its -- Boomer -- computing guide. Remember the Guide for Aging Computer Users? In May, Microsoft updated the guide and renamed it Computing Guide for Boomers, including demystification and accessibility advice about PCs and peripherals, but also a guide to selecting one for your parents. Kudos to them for recognizing the growing physical limitations -- vision, hearing, dexterity of even the most hop-skipping-and-jumping boomers, but also that they have caregiving responsibilities that may include communicating with aging parents -- online.

Nice find by Laurie Orlov at Aging In Place Technology Watch. Some useful information from Microsoft.
