An Event of Interest ... Colorado Senior Law Day!We were exhibitors at the Denver event held July 27th and it was a great event with many exhibitors and wonderful educational programs. We brought a large computer monitor and shared our website and eNewsletter at our table. At times we had people standing 3 people deep listening to our online demos.
Basically we were amazed and pleased at how 'seniors' were interested in the Internet and spoke to us about how they go online. Congratulations to all you 'silver surfers' for stopping by and thank to all of you who signed up for this eNewsletter at Senior Law Day. We hope you will enjoy our monthly eNewsletter!
