Generation C
Nate Warner points us to a recent Trendwatcher article about Generation C. And, rightly points out that, most of our generation doesn’t associate itself with X,Y,Z, or the millenials. We are a generation that is about content and content creation with digital media tools (even if just for our friends, or for our classes). We’ve grown up with the tools, and seen them evolve. We know how to use them for fun, for persuasion, and for vast styles of creative projects.
All of these things are the reasons that ways to share this content are popping up left and right. (Think Flickr, and the Apple Student Gallery) And, it is only the beginning.
Cheers to content creation.

Speaking of such… be on the lookout for http://www.hottraveller.com
I met the creator this week in NZ (where it will be focused during the start). Its only 12 weeks old, and has much potential imo.

I remember seeing a statistic that said that a certain amount of data was generated each day worldwide due to the internet. I wonder what that number is now….
