It happened to me this weekend. We had my parents over for a Valentine’s Day family luncheon. We’re all sitting in the living room and my dad starts asking me about a Facebook message he was sent. It seems that my 74 year old Dad has ventured into the world of social networking. and that is where my out of body experience happened. I felt like I was in this alternate universe watching myself tried to not have the look of shock on my face. Pretending that it was perfectly normal that dear old dad is hangin out with his grandkids on Facebook! If you really want to make his day – look him up – Herman Kuck in Alpharetta, GA – just say hey!
In selling an online service to community associations for the past ten years, I lost track of the # of board members in their 40′s who worry that the older people in their neighborhood that don’t understand the internet and won’t find value in a web site… time for a wake up call. I read that the fastest growing demographic on the web is the older than 65 crowd.. and I believe it!
