This is an exciting time as the interest in topics related to aging has never been greater or more dynamic. New books, web sites, newsletters and blogs are created every day. If you have resources related to intentional aging that you wish to share, please offer it here.
Here are two items worth a look:
Positive Aging Conference in December
The 4th National Positive Aging Conference will be held in Los Angeles from Dec. 7-10, sponsored by the Fielding Graduate University and co-sponsored by AARP.

This is a monthly electronic newsletter published by Rick Moody under the auspices of The Gerontological Society of America and National AARP. If there is only one newsletter I read every month it is this one. Often provocative and always chalk full of good information and comment.
