SILVER SURFERS WITH ATTITUDE!
Silver Surfers: Those of us Over 50 who use the internet with alacrity or trepidation.....
or anywhere in between.
For the Over 50 crowd, by the Over 50 crowd who don't feel old........
(but are slightly freaked as they get a glimpse of their parents when they look in the mirror!)
Let's take advantage of Discounts, Tips, Humour, Connections, Suggestions, Vacations - for US!
A GROUP of SMART, ENERGETIC, WISE PEOPLE with 50 YEARS UNDER THEIR BELT
Amazing how much we have to share.
I'm OVER 50, and I'm a SILVER SURFER with ATTITUDE. (I'd rather be called a black widow, or a computer cougar but the name will stick no doubt)I have no idea how to run a group, I just know I couldn't find one that was broad enough to cover my interests - so like any independent minded human - I'm starting this one.
I'm one of those learn the hard way types, have to try it myself, ignore dire predictions, I'll fall off the roof on my own, thank you! As I'm getting older the things I'm learning are a little less dangerous, and my pride is a little less important - I'd like to learn through the benefit of experience - hope you will add to the pot.
Add lenses, join, make suggestions, add to lists, vote on things, make this a great group for those of us with ATTITUDE!

Now that we're middle aged - How OLD is OLD?
OK from a teenagers point of view - we're all ancient - they don't get a vote - I remember thinking the same way - I think. Is age relative?
SILVER SURFERS invade Social Networks
I was somewhat baffled by "My Space, FaceBook, Flickr" my nephews got me to sign up on Face Book, which I did, and then got busy with other things and haven't been on it in months.... Now I'm going to barge ahead, join them all, and try to remember all my passwords later - much later!

OVER 50? ON THE WEB? Finding it Hard to Keep Up? Tips for Silver Surfers

I'd rather be called a black widow than a silver surfer, but you know it'll stick just like cougars did - now we can be computer cougars. I bought my first iMac in 2002 just after my husband died. I was searching for many things, but a new home...
Turning over another new leaf?

I was born in 1948 placing me on the leading edge of our generation. After stating my qualifications I am submitting a lens to the group for consideration.
Would have voted in your "How Old Is Old" poll, but I didn't see NEVER as an option. Just kidding, I did vote.
