Generation Y & relationship with Technology

Stolen from Wikipedia, although very interesting.

These are the things common to a fairly sizable group of American generation Y (which covers the year I was born) relating to tech. Ones I’ve marked in bold are ones I fit into…

  • 97% own a computer
  • 97% have downloaded music and other media using peer-to-peer file sharing
  • 94% own a cell phone
  • 76% use instant messaging and social networking sites
  • 75% of college students have a Facebook account
  • 60% own some type of portable music and/or video device such as an iPod
  • 49% regularly download music and other media using peer-to-peer file sharing
  • 34% use websites as their primary source of news
  • 28% author a blog and 44% read blogs
  • 15% of IM users are logged on 24 hours a day/7 days a week
All but two. That kind of scares me. Hrm…

surprised? me neither.

This is well and truly proof that the rules of the internet exist… I’m still not too sure if we should be embracing or fearing this one though.

Lucas

Lucas… is the best. He’s the nicest person I know and I thoroughly enjoy spending time at work, working on problems by myself instead of sending them as ‘bug reports’ to him directly.
