Boomers is a content filled, concise and collective focused blog. It is authored by a youth minded marketing guru named Brent Green. I will let his own about statement speak for itself:
I am a marketing consultant and author of “Marketing to Leading-Edge Baby Boomers: Perceptions, Principles, Practices, Predictions.” I present workshops and give speeches about the Boomer generation and business strategies. I also provide analysis and commentary for news media such as “The Los Angeles Times,” “US News & World Report,” “Business Week,” and “The Wall Street Journal.” My company, Brent Green & Associates, Inc., is an internationally award-winning firm specializing in direct response marketing for health & fitness and Boomer-focused companies. Marketing to Boomers I welcome your comments and questions here. Please enjoy my blog commentary, which usually slides precariously on thin ice.
This site is not just a collection of rants but a collection of information and news updates of interest to baby boomers. I was very impressed with the post on brain training and ageism.
I am convinced that this is one of those “go to sites” for anyone who wants to know what is on the thinking mind of a boomer. It reminds me very much of the static site Now What Jobs because of the comprehensive resources.
For serious bloggers looking for content ideas this is a site to mull over for a fresh point of view and current information.
Thanks Brent for your hard work and expertise.

Rosie,
Thanks for your encouraging review of my blog. I’ve been quietly writing it since 2005 and enjoy having a venue to weigh in on some of the most critical issues of our time. I usually post once per month and try to share worthwhile insights and commentary with readers. This last year I’ve added my edited videos, which expands the blog into a Web 2.0 framework. In 2008, I plan to present some short video interviews of truly exceptional people in the fields of marketing, aging and social commentary. Best of success with your blog and thanks for providing a review of all things Boomer in the blogosphere.
