The NY Times has an interesting article about now the rapid pace of technology change may be causing mini-generation gaps, with kids born within the past 5 years growing up with much-different tech than those who came before. I can see it just within my own family, though I believe the effect is exaggerated when comparing families where the parent(s) are tech-savvy vs those that are not. What do you think?
People two, three or four years apart are having completely different experiences with technology, said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Research Centers Internet and American Life Project. College students scratch their heads at what their high school siblings are doing, and they scratch their heads at their younger siblings. It has sped up generational differences.
