Baby boomers have grown up with technology. We’ve seen enormous change over the past seven decades. It’s staggering what has transpired since the days of telephone “party” lines in homes, rotary dial phones,  two or three TV channels via an outside antenna – the list goes on. So, it’s always odd to hear someone who is NOT a baby boomer make the assumption that older people are clueless about technology. We’re not. But what can baffle us is the complexity of technology today. Which baffles many who are much younger, too. It is difficult to stay on top of authenticator apps, IPTV apps (and how to configure them), two or three step ID security systems, modems, ethernet, etc. The technology is always changing and tricky to master. Ezra Schwartz is a UX developer with more than 30 years experience designing interfaces that are clear and simple. His major complaint with technology – the industry in which he makes his living – is that apps and software platforms have become so complex that they are leaving many older people on the sidelines. He’s our guest this week on The Art 2 Aging and he explains what’s wrong and how to fix it. Correction: Ezra Schwartz is a UX designer; he is not a UX developer. Our apologies to Ezra!
