Wither the Silver Surfer?

By Kathryn on 17 June, 2009

Prompted by Suw Charman, this is some research I did last year regarding the demographic termed ‘Silver Surfer’. I’ve tidied things up a bit and made it look a bit prettier, but looking back it reminds me that I really should do some more work in this area, as much more research has come out since, including some fantastic work by Ofcom entitled: Digital Lifestyles Adults aged 60 and over.

UPDATE 30/06/2009: Part II of this post can now be read here.
