Abstract :
Using modern social media solutions requires skills and technical knowledge that elders usually do not possess. In this paper we present social network adapted for elders in order to reconnect them with friends and family. Main features of this social network are platform independent video communication, simple user interface and intuitive navigation. In addition, we integrated e-health service to expand usability of developed social network by providing elders with a content they might find interesting.
