Generation Y

Y is after X - it's that simple. But Y is very different!!!!

97% own a Personal Computer
94% own a cell phone
75% of the college students have a social network account

About 76 Million are entering the job space right now.
Businesses better get ready to know about the power and connectivity of that generation. If you are not connected you are out.

Social Media - where do you go

Social media has been an interesting ride. Unlike technology that was pushed into the market and a lot of ad dollars made it well known - it was the opposite. The market picked it up and then many asked - what happened?

Every once in a while things change at speed of light and many still didn't even know. Why? Because 1 billion of the 6 billion people on earth communicate amongst each other (like the 15 - 25 year old) without letting the rest participate in the conversation. Then once we all know it we lokk back and just wonder ;-)
