The volume of information on the Internet can be overwhelming. I've reviewed thousands of web sites to find user-friendly and relevant resources for inclusion in my boomer search engine.To compile my Top 10 list of trustworthy, informative and enjoyable sites for 2009, I've selected that sites that I've revisited many times. I'm sure you, too, will find them invaluable this year.
Where it's "great to be grand"! Grandparents.com is "the place for today's new generation of active, involved grandparents."
Find assorted age-appropriate and weather-appropriate "things to do" (even in dozens of cities), including suggestions that won't cost thrifty grandparents a dime. Mix in travel, gift ideas (find the perfect toy), video, and food suggestions (you might be inspired to cook with your little darlings). Take advantage of expert advice on family, education law, finance and health and get a peek into the psyche of celebrity grandparents. You'll get a treasure trove of information.
Where else can you find photographed independent living aids displayed boldly and accurately? Protected by the Better Business Bureau of Connecticut, Dynamic Living consumers shop with confidence--either by use (moving around, sitting/standing, vision, communication, caregiving, memory) or by location (car, kitchen, bathroom).
I like this site for its clarity, simplicity, readability, references and responsiveness.
Two warnings: See what other customers recommend but select well to avoid restocking charges. Also, customer service operates Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. only.
Get your age-driven legal questions answered here.
Elderlaw covers Medicaid, Medicare, nursing home rights, and estate planning. Elderlaw 101 dumbs down additional topics, including veterans benefits, so you don't need to have a law degree to understand.

If you haven't gone on our website yet I suggest you try a visit to "http://www.50todeath.com." We are a a comedic web series that features the adventures and misadventures of three boomers who are jousting with the 21st Century. We've gotten some terrific press in "Tube Filter," "BackStage," and "As Time Goes
By" and were named #1 Comedy Web Series in New Zealand. We've been compared to "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and Woody Allen (not bad company to keep, we figure). So for a smile of recognition or a laugh out loud, check us out.
