✦ Synopsis


When today's young adults become 'older adults' will they exhibit difficulties with technology that appear to characterize the current older generation? This paper is intended to begin a discussion of technology experience as related to aging. The goal is to challenge some existing characterizations of older Web users and consider the implications for the future. Are technology difficulties an inescapable fact of aging? Or are there factors that will serve to equip future generations of older adults with skills that will erase or lessen these difficulties?
