Abstract
Online social networks can potentially play an important role in
connecting older adults with family and friends who often live far. However,
adoption of social Web services among the elderly is still very limited because
the user interfaces are not adapted to them and also because few of their friends
use such services. This paper introduces a mobile Web application designed
with older adults' characteristics in mind that integrates a popular social
network.
