Seniors are more likely to need such connection than are younger people, as age increases and the ability to get out and about decreases. Yet, seniors are uncomfortable with the technology itself.

He recommends that seniors get a kid to help them learn the ropes of email and other services. MIT futurist sees ‘connected’ nation. AARP Bulletin, 39 (4 Apr): 1 12 13; 15

Information Overload. Computer Life 1998, (May), 56–59, 130.; Not only the Internet, but all the rest of today's electronic connecting devices—especially cell phones and pagers—have had the effect of contributing both to an information overload and to a further erosion of what the private space means. Maintaining a telephone answering machine to pick up messages while you are out or busy is no longer enough. It has become almost a societal norm to have a pager so that you are instantly available for critical calls, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. At least the Panopticon was restricted to a physical building and line-of-sight. Today's electronic surveillance is not so limited, and the prisoner carries the equipment voluntarily
