Senior Guide to Computer Literacy
(Oh, Those Blasted Computers!)
|
| |
“...I will now claim--until dispossessed--that I was the first person in the world to apply the
typewriter to literature...The early machine was full of caprices, full of defects--devilish ones.
It had as many immoralities as the machine of today has virtues. After a year or two I found
that it was degrading my character, so I thought I would give it to Howells...He took it home
to Boston, and my morals began to improve, but his have never recovered”
Mark Twain- "The First Writing Machines"
I know lots of seniors that are intimidated by computers. It’s not that they don’t know the
value of the new ‘cyber age’ knowledge that is around, it’s just that our generation didn’t have
all of this technology available when we were in our ‘learning years’.
Old-fashioned newspapers, real books with real pages and solid covers, magazines, radio and
television informed us. But, now it is the computer that rules, it is the main source of
knowledge dissemination on the planet. Seniors wouldn’t mind putting down the evening paper
and going online if it wasn’t so blasted complicated.
You’re a brave senior if you bought this e-book; after all, e-books are (relatively speaking) all
new.
But let me assure you, e-books that you read on your computer screen are often so rich in
content that they offer an instant way to many other sources. E-books are capable of getting
you knowledge and information quicker and more efficiently than books on paper. I like to say:
“E-books are better than tree-books any day!” So, you’re reading one now, and I can assume
you’re already on your way to mastering the basic skills needed to survive (and thrive) in the
cyber jungle online.
However, I’m sure it will be helpful to start this adventure into our golden years by really giving
you the keys to completely grasp this new technology, which will enhance your life ten-fold and
give you total confidence as we explore the best ways to make our lives productive and more
fulfilling.
After all, throughout this e-book (and this is one of the great advantages of this form), you will
be given web sites to visit that are rich in content and full of valuable resources that you can
access instantly.
You won’t have to:
- make any painstaking and time consuming trips to the library,
- make long-distance phone calls or
- attend specialized group meetings
- worry about missing out on valuable resources because you didn’t know where ‘to start’.
It’s all conveniently available at the click of a button.
There are tons of ways to learn basic computer and Web skills. High schools and community
colleges offer lots of options. I recommend them to you instead of the usual way we learn
about computers; namely, our friends and family members. Or worse - on our own; fumbling
along, clicking here and there in a maddening rush to try and understand all the “geek speak”.
Instead, do yourself a favor and take a class. Why? Because I know how important being
independent is to us. We’d rather get out of the way of our children and ‘helpmates’ and get
this knowledge on our own. Take a class. Many of them are free of charge, you only need take
a few sessions to get yourself completely up to snuff, and they are local.
Then, we can amaze them all with our newfound savvy!
In addition, when we take a class, we get all of the information about this subject. It’s not a
‘hit or miss’ proposition. We can take it step by step in an environment where there are other
people in the exact same position we are in; students eager to learn as a group and share
ideas and knowledge.

Are you like me, and learn best by doing? There is simply no substitute for practice. When you
put what you learn to use right away, you reinforce what you’ve learned and this helps you
retain it.
When you take action step #1 (see above), you take the first step to a wonderful world of rich,
independent living. You learn how to:
- stay in touch with family and friends
- make new friends
- communicate online with people around the world that share your interests and hobbies
- get news and information for free and instantly
- even do a little shopping
……… all this without leaving the comfort of your home via a computer with an Internet
connection.

Did you know the fastest growing groups of
American Internet users are 65+!
On a typical day, 69% of wired seniors are using the
internet, compared with 56% of all users, and
seniors use e-mail as much as any other age group.
* So, you’re far from alone when you ‘get online’.

Did you know that in the USA alone, someone turns 50 every seven seconds. Yes, the baby-
boomer generation is alive and kicking and the senior population reaching 65 and up will
double from 35 Million to well over 70 Million in the next two decades!
So what does that mean to you?
It means plenty. In the words of our author, "Unlike any generation before them, they will live
longer, look and feel younger, have more options and better support systems than any 'elderly'
group of people since the dawn of civilization."
This means that seniors will demand more and better information. Retirement for these
healthy, vibrant people may be non-existent and play time and travel are a given.
They do more, have more and want to keep it. They require access to sophisticated medical
and dental care. They have more money and need state of the art advice to grow it. Above all
else, they have more questions than answers.
That's where "The Senior Sourcebook" comes in. This comprehensive guide covers everything
from Medicare to Financial Planning. You won't believe what is jam-packed inside the pages.
