While access to affordable connections & technologies remains a challenge for many Australians, a key barrier to #digitalinclusion is lack of #digitalskills.

A privilege to hear @SenatorDodson give the first National Aboriginal Press Club address today - calling for the mainstream media to shine a passionate light on issues that impact Aboriginal people @Telstra @withMEAA

Great to see Tech Savvy Seniors equipping older Australian to embrace social media! @salibraries #barossacouncil

[TodayTonightAdelaide @TodayTonightSA]

Now to the older generation cashing in on social media stardom.

They're the seniors stealing the online market, and making millions of dollars thanks to their massive following.

And as Tiffany Warne reports, they say anyone can do it.
