This couple told me that their son had joined the armed forces the day after Pearl Harbour. The woman told me tha

20、t she had almost ruined her health worrying over that only son. Where was he? Was he safe? Or in action? Would he be wounded? Killed? When I asked her how she overcame her worry, she replied: “I got busy. She told me that at first she had dismissed her maid and tried to keep busy by doing all her ho

27、g a friend or family member has caused quite a debate. Later retirement age is one idea for how the government might respond, but I think we can make a change without waiting for a new law.My solution? Yup, you guessed it: the web. OK, Im not mad enough to suggest that a piece of electronic equipmen

28、t is a magic bullet to loneliness, but I do, hand on heart, think that encouraging more older people to get online is the simplest and cheapest tool we can equip them with so they can reawaken old, or form new friendships.One of my favorite jobs as Digital Champion is judging Age UKs Internet Champi

29、on of the Year Award. Looking through this years shortlist, it was obvious that each participant had been suddenly filled with a desire to socialize because of the way the net had widened their social circle. Reading the shortlist, what also struck me was how far from rocket science getting older pe

30、ople online is.One of this years winners, Brenda, has a great story thats both totally special and also very typical. Brenda felt extremely lonely after her husbands death. Several months later, she got online. Having quickly got used to using the computer, Brenda amazingly managed to make contact w
