With Christmas right around the corner, my family has decided to chip in and buy my grandmother a new computer. This will be her very first computer EVER and we are all very excited. So, what sparked the whole computer idea? You might be surprised at the answer: Facebook.
I was at my grandmother's home recently and had brought along my laptop to do some work as well as show her some pictures of family when I logged into my Facebook account really quickly to respond to someone about something. She asked what it was all about, and after I explained to her in terms that she could understand, she was sold. Currently, my grandmother (who is pushing 80) stays extremely active by crocheting, knitting, playing tons of Scrabble and emailing her family and friends using a service called WebTv.

And for someone like my grandmother, who is older, there have been studies conducted which claim that those people who use a computer on a regular basis actually have less instances of developing degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, etc. It's about keeping your mind engaged. It's about thinking. Even something as simple as sending an email to someone requires both hand and eye coordination to use a keyboard and a mouse. You have to think about what you want to say and type it out. These are things that we take for granted when we are younger.
I am excited as ever for my grandmother to be on Facebook, and although I have already given her a lot of pointers and tips, I am hoping that she will take the reins and venture out on her own to figure the rest of it out. It is the "figuring it out" part that w
