Tustin, CA (PRWEB) August 8, 2008 -- According to a recent Simmons Market Research Study, the nation's 78 million baby boomers are being overwhelmed by an avalanche of increasingly intimidating high-tech gadgets. And, with more and more of them becoming empty-nesters as they age, the youngest of whom turned 44 this year, they can no longer rely on their tech-savvy Gen X or Y children for help.

? Simple techniques to deal with shutter lag.
? How to take pictures like a pro.

Senior Citizen Discounts: Not Advertised, Still Worth Considering
It seems senior citizens can find discounts almost everywhere - at a travel desk, restaurant, hotels, banks, theaters, parks, museums, etc all offer senior citizen discounts. However, in most cases, you won't see or hear about such discounts until you ask about such discounts at the counter. Sometimes the waitress at the restaurant may spot you as a senior citizen and give you a discount, but in most cases, you need to ask. It pays to ask, as you will find discounts 5% to 50%. If there are discounts of 10% or more for senior citizens, they are usually advertised and widely publicized.
