The problem limits your eye sight and thus affects your lifestyle negatively. The reduced eyesight limits the number of activities that you can engage in where one of the most distressing things is that it makes it hard [...]

You all know how I love reading but lately, I’ve been busy with work and whatnot that I find it hard to set aside some time for my reading. In between allergy attacks – which I have yet to find out the trigger – and, which by the way, attacks morning and nights, my favorite reading times, of course, and running to and fro my everyday tasks, I’m deeply saddened [...]

If you Google the words “email safety”, notice that there are two age groups often warned about it: kids and seniors. It is because the risk of these groups getting abused over emails is quite rampant. Kids are usually curious beings and almost always curiosity clouds better judgment while seniors are usually trusting and, well, curious beings too so the fate they share is pretty much the same as always.

I have been to several social networking sites and I tell you, it ain’t easy to be private in these sites! No matter how you try to keep some things private, they will still end up showing somewhere else.

However, I found out that there is indeed more to it than [...]

Or maybe, you feel revived just by writing down the things that make you happy, that is, your [...]

You would be amazed how seniors are now getting into online selling. Just consider the number of successful online stores out there that are operated and managed by seniors, particularly those who have just retired and enjoying the perks of retirement. It is a no-brainer actually, online selling indeed fits seniors to a tee. Why not? Online selling allow seniors to be able to control their working hours, work from [...]

Finding a job can be hard for seniors – especially seniors – since most of them have outdated resumes, have been out-of-practice for job interviews or are just plain too old to be looking for a job and starting a new career. With the advent of technology, the ground where you find work widened and your reach became longer. Imagine someone from far-flung areas like India or the Philippines can [...]

I am now, finally—after a year of withdrawal—and fully, switching to ebooks and ditching my paperback collecting habit for good. I can now confidently say that I am so over with paperback and I am not buying one even if my life depends on it.
