Seniors are embracing the digital age at a faster pace than you might think, says the Association of Mature American Citizens. A new report by content provider, Limelight, shows that older Americans, including baby boomers and senior citizens, spend more time online than millennials-much more time.
The company’s newest annual report on computer usage shows that more than half of the individuals who spend the most time online are those between the ages of 51 and 69. More than half of them, 51% to be precise, use the Internet more than 15 hours a week compared with millennials between the ages of 18 and 33. Only 41% of those whippersnappers spend that much of their leisure time online.
