Is This Site Really Age Appropriate?

Posted by on Jan 10, 2007 | One Comment

(For those asking about the Ubuntu tutes, they’re returning on Tuesday.)

So today I stumbled upon a portal known as Eons. At its heart, it is supposed to be a portal for users 50 and older. After providing personal details that would mimic of those in the site’s target age group, I took a moment to look around a bit.

Overall, I wasn’t too impressed. I was not seeing anything that seemed to be gaging interests dissimilar to my own. Note that I am wording it this way as I am certainly not qualified to judge what someone in their 50′s(+) is looking for in a Web portal.

So what do you think? Am I being totally unfair here? Perhaps my youth has me looking at this site through jaded eyes? Email me, let’s talk about it.

    I got an iPad 2 32-GB for $21.68 and my girlfriend loves her Panasonic Lumix GF 1 Camera that we got for $ 38.76 there arriving tomorrow by UPS. I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LED TV to my boss for $ 657 which only cost me $ 62.81 . Here is the site we use to get it al from, http://to.ly/aXGE
