text (english) Colorize hyperlinks for seniors: When websites violate the guideline to use different colors to clearly distinguish between visited and unvisited links, seniors easily lose track of where they have been. We’ve certainly seen the same problem among all age groups: It's confusing when websites change the standard link colors, and it's particularly confusing when the same color is used for all links, whether or not you have visited the destination page. However, seniors have a harder time remembering which parts of a website they have visited before, so they are more likely to waste time repeatedly returning to the same place.
text (russian) Цветовое выделение гиперссылок для пожилых пользователей: Если в веб-приложениях не применяется использование различных цветов для посещённых и не посещённых гиперссылок, пожилые пользователи могут легко забыть, какие веб-страницы они уже посещали.
