The Pew Internet & American Life Project says that 3% of online seniors are blogging and that 17% have read a blog. A article in the USA Today mentions a few them including Dad's Tomato Garden Journal by Ray White (92), My Mom's Blog by Millie Garfield (80) and Oldest Living Blogger by Ray Sutton (73).

There are also many others not mentioned in the article. The Third Age website maintains an active group blog that is updated several times each day. The Ageless Project lists dozens of blogs by seniors. A Washington Post article from August, 2005 also mentions more blogs. And another Washington Post feature includes an interesting discussion with Reni Bennett (63) the author of the Times Goes By weblog.
