In this age of technology, more & more "seniors" (who knows anymore where that age begins!) are getting with it and conquering text messaging. It seems they're going that way mostly because they have grandchildren (or children) who are texting them.

I guess maybe Facebooking comes in second, but when they're mobile, texting is it!
Today at a luncheon I attended someone handed out their business card flier with a tongue-in-cheek guide for texting seniors.
