ever more popular with baby boomers and seniors.

New statistics from Experian Hitwise show that people 55+ make up
24% of the online population. 20% are active on Facebook, and thatā€™s
not far behind the 23% of 25-34 year old Facebook users.

baby boomers and seniors who find it an easy way to keep in touch
with friends and family scattered across the country.
