Default Great article: You’re Not Too Old For Social Media, You’re Just Lazy
"If you own a business, the way you market that business has changed. There are new tools to help you do what you’ve always done, but better. And while you may be too lazy, too unmotivated, too intimidated or too full of yourself to learn them, you are certainly not too old."

I think that little excerpt, however blunt it may be , says it all - loved this article and had to share (originally discovered on Twitter, as retweeted by @mxstrand)

Do your clients ever tell you they're 'too old' to give social media a try? It's one I haven't heard yet, personally...

Cannot say that anyone has told me they are too old. Not ready for the change or unprepared for it, but not old.

Could you please post the link to the article, I would love to read it?

This is a super article. I am tagging it for future reference. As someone of the boomer generation, I have found that a lot of "older" americans feel that social media is for kids. I would probably be in that mindset myself if I wasn't too thirsty for learning new things. Thanks for the post. It will make a handy reference tool when speaking with those "older' clients.
