Kathryn Robinson Better Than John McCain
Monday, July 21st, 2008After read a while from the article with title Unlike McCain, many seniors depend on the Web, I have seen that only a few group of people in U.S. who like to write on the internet (blogging). As you may know old people actually need something to get rid of from the feeling of being exiled and afraid of abandonment. Check a look the quote below.
If Sen. John McCain is really serious about becoming a Web-savvy citizen, perhaps Kathryn Robinson can help.
Robinson is now 106 – that’s 35 years older than McCain – and she began using the Internet at 98, at the Barclay Friends home in West Chester, Pa., where she lives. "I started to learn because I wanted to e-mail my family," she says – in an e-mail message, naturally.
Blogs have been buzzing recently over McCain’s admission that when it comes to the Internet, "I’m an illiterate who has to rely on his wife for any assistance he can get." And the 71-year-old presumptive Republican nominee, asked about his Web use last week by the New York Times, said that aides "go on for me. I will have that down fairly soon, getting on myself."
That depends how you look at the statistics. Only 35 percent of Americans over age 65 are online, according to data from April and May compiled by the Pew Internet Project at the Pew Research Center.
you will see that the senior citizen like Kathryn Robinson which 35 years old than McCain is really interested about internet and learn many things about internet including blogging, writing, and reading email. That is nice thing to do for person who has been lived in different generation. What about you?
