  • Abstract
    According to a report from the Pew Research Center titled “Older adults and Internet use”, adults in their mid-sixties are increasingly becoming Internet users. Once older users experience the Web, they eagerly become frequent users. The information for this article was obtained from a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) in northeast Florida, U.S.A.
