Paper Abstract:
|
The benefits to the old and very old of mental stimulation and connections with family are well documented. eMail and the Web can make very large contributions to both. This paper discusses the advantages and requirements for up-to-date technology such as Notepad computers and 'Smart' Television to make the entry to the digital age for older people not familiar with computers, as easy as possible. |
