Growing Up With Technology
It’s very interesting to look at the differences between generations when it comes to the adoption and application of technologies. I’m caught somewhere in the middle where I’ve grown up with some technology, but nowhere near as immersed in technology as my younger brothers (I was born in 1976 and my brothers were born in 1986 and 1988).
I also work in technology and I’m very involved in technology advances and staying on top of the latest and greatest technology shifts. The one thing that I’ve noticed more and more lately is the drastic shift in the divergence of technologies, mindsets, revenue models, and the application of technology for the different generations.
A presentation that really drove this home lately was done by Josh Spear at Google Zeitgeist 2007 in Europe.
