Silver Surfers

Marketers most often focus their content and their promotions to the venerable 18-49 age demographics or more precisely the 18-34 age groups. Internet marketers and online retailers are perhaps even guiltier of not looking beyond that age bubble as they and their managers fall within those demographics based on the relative newness of the medium as compared with radio, television. print or outdoor marketing. Baby Boomers however have embraced the internet in huge numbers. Almost 80% of those between 50 and 64 year of age are online and that number grows every year. Add to the fact that Baby Boomers have large amounts of disposable income, it would be irresponsible for websites to not take a closer look at how to reach and influence Baby Boomers to buy. This is vitally important for Eye Care Professionals to embrace as we all know the need for quality eyecare increases as we age. The folks at Accredited-Online-College have put together this infographic on Baby Boomers and shopping online.

Technology & Sleep

There was a time, not that long ago, that bringing work home meant packing important papers into a briefcase that might or might not get read later that evening. Other than that, we tended to gather round the radio or TV, read the newspaper, a magazine or a book and enjoy time with our families. Rarely were we ever interrupted with a phone call from the office or a co-worker. Whatever it was could wait till tomorrow.

Today, our work follows us almost everywhere we go, including where we go. Between laptop computers, tablets and smartphones, we can be and often are called on to work almost every waking moment. Even in those hours we are not working, we use technology for our own purposes, whether it is navigating our way home in traffic, seeing what our friends are up to, checking on the news, or yes, checking our work emails. Technology has many downsides however, one of them being sleep. How many of us have had trouble going to sleep because the last thing we do before going to bed is read email, say goodnight to our Facebook friends, or check out a cool pin on Pinterest? How many of us even have big flat screen TV’s in our bedroom we fall asleep to?

The blue light emited by all these devices have a negative effect on our eyes and our sleep paterns. The folks at bigbrandbeds in England have put together this infographic showing us how technology is hurting our sleep patterns and what we can do to cope, without throwing our smartphones out the window.
