Hi Gene,

 

   Those are good websites, and as you tweak the first it will get even better, but it's difficult to do when one is in pain.  I wish I could wave a magic wand and your back pain would go away. 

 

    The Websites listed below by PC Magazine, might help divert your attention away from your back!   Have a good week, and talk to you again soon!   Shelby

Littlemite,

Thanks for your response. The other website is www.seniorsrwe.blogspot.com . Its goal is to share information about elderly. I haven't had to mcuh time to keep up on it lately and would like to have articles and ideas from others and others to join it or the other website. I have been busy taking two courses on online teaching (lots of work) and working on a class, internet for elders using  www.greypath.com. In addition, a month ago, my back started to hurt a lot (they found artheritis) and it hurts a lot, especially in the morning.  Thanks for your wonderful contributions. Hope to hear from yo soon.

G-d bless.

Gene,

Hi Gene,

 

   www.pogo.com/trivia is an excellent choice.  I also joined one of your two Blogs which is www.eldrtech.ning.comThis appears to be an excellent website

 

    Gene, when type in a web address (URL), at the end of the last letter, press 'ENTER"on your keyboard and it turns into a hyperlink which makes it easier for members to access.. 

 

   Your second Blog states it has a broken link, and I couldn't access it.  Perhaps you haven't typed the address in properly, so please double check!  Shelby

Littlemite,

I just came upon the game site, www.pogo.com and its trivia component, www.pogo.com/trivia, not bad;

and texting vocabulary, www.netlingo.com (be careful, some of items are not nice), these were in  a newspaper about understanding your children or grandchildren's texting messages.

I am trying two blogs which I try to keep up but I need the help of your contributers; these are mine;

www.eldrtech.ning.com  (elders using technology,) and Www.seniorsrwe.blogpost.com which I haven't maintained regularly and could use help of our friends. It contains interesting news for seniors.Thanks, my friends.

Gene
