Social Networks and my Grandparents
During the last decade, technology have had a big impact on people's life. An example of this are my grandparents. They are experts handling (managing ?) apps on their mobile phone and using social networks, especially facebook and twitter. They spend almost all day in front of the computer chatting with friends, posting images, watching videos, posting tweets. My grandfather is 80 years old and my grandmother is 79 years old (is there any way to avoid using "years old" twice in that sentence?). I'm not saying that that is bad for them, I'm glad they know how to deal with social networks, but they are not aware about all dangerous out there. Viruses, people who want to stole your information etc. I have warned them about all that kind of things, but most of the times, they just dont know how to identify that kind of danger and they click everywhere. They have crashed they computer a lot of times and every time i fix it I told them to try to be more careful about it.
Do you have an addicted to social networks grandparents like me? .
Thanks.

Comment: You might want to look into a software called IObit on behalf of your grandparents, there are of course numerous others but this is one.
