Seniors adopting Social Media ... fast

A new study by PEW Internet Research suggests that seniors use of social media has recently almost doubled in only the past year - from 22% to 42% of seniors using social media networking.

This appears to be consistent with the "adoption curves" of other groups, it's just happening a bit later for the senior crowd.
