Going online: my social Life

In our increasingly dislocated and mobile society, online social network (OSN) sites are proving valuable in bridging distances and facilitating interaction and communications. Go-myLife provided an OSN platform built around the needs of elderly people. ZSI was responsible for the exploration of the interaction patterns of seniors in OSN as well as for the evaluation and validation of the developed systems.
