Social networking isn’t just for kids, you know. EONS.com is a social networking site for boomers - and I’ve recently been named as the “Parenting Teens” expert there. I’m the guest expert for a group called “Over 50 and Kids Under 18.”

Eons is for boomers what Facebook is for your teen; it’s a site that is built to facilitate communication and networking. If you are 50 or over, this is a fun place to get some hands-on experience with this “social networking” phenomenon because it is the wave of the future and you need to see what it’s all about.

Signing up is free, and once you’ve done that you can create your own profile page, including photos, favorite videos, links, interests, etc. Noodle around and you’ll see there is lots of information, games, fun things to do… and there are groups. This may be the heart of the site, and the group that I work with is a group of parents who are over 50 and have kids under 18. Several hundred group members share issues, questions, thoughts, suggestions and most importantly, support.

There is an interesting variety of experts and celebrities that write for EONS; Jane Seymour is one of them and she keeps the readers posted on her experiences at Dancing with the Stars. Here’s a link to the Experts and Celebrities page…Check it out!
