Hello maria Chiara, at this link http://is.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pages/EAP/eInclusion.html#Carers you find recent different research materials on the topic of ICT (including social media) and informal carers of elderly people. If you look at the bibliography at the end of the report "Long-term Care Challenges in an Ageing Society: The Role of ICT and Migrants" at http://ipts.jrc.ec.europa.eu/publications/pub.cfm?id=3299 you will find many useful references also to the broader topic you are interested in. regards Stefano Kluzer 2010/12/1 Maria Chiara Pettenati <pettenati.mariachiara@gmail.com>:
Hi, We have just started an EU project AAL project named SomedAll ( http://somedall.vtt.fi/). We are starting by surveying the state of the art in the domain. I would be very thankful if someone could suggest us relevant resources in the domain of **social media/network usage for elderly people**.
Thanks a lot,
