Seniorama is Perfect for Those New to the Digital Frontier

Posted: June 12th, 2011

For those of us who have been on the internet for many years, the increasing complexity of the web has gone mostly unbeknownst to us. For people new to the web though, it’s now an even more overwhelming experience than it was previously.

Perhaps you’ve heard of how frogs will die when put in boiling water, but if you put them in cold water and slowly raise the temperature until the boiling point, they’ll survive. This is akin to the experiences of veteran web users in comparison to the newer ones. We’ve adapted to the changing environment in a way that is difficult or impossible for newer ones to.

Seniorama is like that pot of cold water slowing being raised to boiling, introducing seniors to the internet in a way that is far easier to digest. The first thing that you’ll notice about Seniorama is the visual design, which is streamlined and easy to navigate. It’s perfect for those with failing eyesight as well, with large fonts and colorful graphics.

Seniorama functions similar to a full-fledged operating system, complete with an internet browser, e-mail service, voice and video chat capability, and games that can be enjoyed by users of all ages. E-mail service is complete with an optional text-to-speech feature, which allows e-mails to be read to the user out loud.

24-hour customer service via e-mail is another important feature, giving seniors the confidence that no matter what they come across or attempt to perform, they’ll have the backup of knowledgeable staff at their disposal.

The internet could not be made any easier to navigate, and seniors of all skill levels should have no trouble getting out there and enjoying it with their family and friends.
