Video Games and Retirees? Yes!

The New York Times article Video Games Conquer Retirees is not a surprise to us here. Ever since MS Solitare, Games have been a great way to get people interested in using computers. While not only sparking interest, games help keep our minds agile and young.

“Anxious about the mental cost of aging, older people are turning to games that rely on quick thinking to stimulate brain activity. A step slower than in their youth, they are using digital recreations of bowling, tennis and golf.”

In our Introduction to Computers Volume 2 we show you how to use the games that come with your computer (like solitare) as well as popular online game sites from yahoo and MSN.    We even show you how to play my current game addiction, Scrabble Rack Attack.

So check out some of these game sites and find your favorite - you’ll be exercising more than your click-finger, you’ll be exercising your brain!
