In this terrific talk, which was recorded at the Senior Planet Exploration Center in NYC on April 17, author Abby Stokes (a new edition of her book “Is This Thing On? A Friendly Guide to Everything Digital for Newbies, Technophobes and the Kicking & Screaming” is just out) addresses your concerns about social media and explains how you can use Facebook and Twitter to connect, or as valuable information sources without ever posting anything. She also discusses LinkedIn, a crucial network for everyone who is still working or looking for work.
