Time Goes By, what it's really like to get older
"Today, TGB is a complex mix of reporting on every aspect of aging: health and medical issues, ageism and age discrimination, media, technology, politics and public policy, culture, marketing to elders, the importance of language, love and sex, friendship, post-career careers, retirement, family, the prospect of death and, certainly, humor.
A large community of elderbloggers has developed over these five years, old people writing on their blogs about their past and present lives, interests and passions, and I’m most grateful for the growing number of TGB readers whose comments, conversation and argument here are creating a remarkable record of what it’s really like to get old." - Ronni Bennett
