First off, I was mainly talking about the people over 50, and yes, I would readily admit there will be a number of exceptions. But come on, MOST of the people over 50 are not tech-savy in the broader sense. They might learn how to use any device, but it is not as much a part of their lives. Think of it: who would have thought 20 years ago you would go to your computer to buy a BOOK??? For me, it's perfectly normal. For my parents, it's science fiction.
However, and in order to show respect for age, I have edited my post above.  |
I can't tell you how much I resent this statement. It is a highly prejudiced over-generalization. I'm 51, and I'm often helping 30 year-olds in my office with computer issues. I also have a rather new but somewhat successful blog., and I know HTML. Oh, and eBooks are a substantial portion of my reading. Try, please, to remember that people are all individuals with varying interests and capabilities.
