Broadband for Seniors: About us

About us

About this site	On this website you will find links to links to FREE resources and tutorials, enabling seniors to make most out of the communication, educational and entertainment facilities of the Internet. The tutorials are mainly in video form (some also in PDF graphics) that we have created ourselves, or that were created by others and are in the public domain (e.g. go to GETTING STARTED on the top menu). We also offer facilities for seniors to upload their Family Albums in video or photo forms. The website took over two years to develop and is largely due to the enthusiasm of Dr. Geoffrey Bird, the National Executive Director of the Council on the Ageing (COTA Over 50s) in 2007-2009, who inspired the project.
Â	Â
Why this site?	To provide a reference website that keeps seniors up-to-date with current Internet developments. AND To faciliate seniors' particiaption in the world of the Internet.
