A while back we reported about a Nielsen Online study that revealed that
people are spending more time, as in actual time, reading the news online. We speculated of course as to what this indicated. Did it mean people are slow readers, or do they get preoccupied and prone to leave browser windows open? Well, according to new research, it could just mean that we're old.
It's not pretty, but it may be true. As we get older, online users tend to lose their savvy and what once took us seconds to process, now takes us longer.
