This morning I had the opportunity to meet with 50 seniors to discuss "changing in aging." I asked how many people had cell phones – every hand went up. I asked how many people had home computers – again, hands up everywhere … No surprise.

Technology is changing the future of aging. But it’s also changing aging right now. And if you care about it, you need to bookmark in your favorites: Aging in Place Technology by Laurie Orlov.
