Silver Surf’s up

Forget all the brew-ha-ha about e-commerce and the other seedy side of the internet (psst - you can now buy ads on the PRSD), the web is all about communication.

Those silver surfers out there are using it to keep in touch with their grandchildren, according to Age Concern, whose Silver Surfer week is set for the stratsophere (virtually speaking) next week.

According to Ofcom, the 65s plus spent more time on the web than those aged 18-24, and these people grew up in a time before ‘old fashioned’ automatically prefixed ‘values’, and when there was discernable political debate. Back to Silver Surfer week, which offers that extra bit of IT support and confidence check out the website (click here).

And if you’re a Silver Surfer who’d like to share their shilling’s worth, get in touch with info@peoplesrepublicofsouthdevon.co.uk Posted by Cptn
