This quote, from a recent blog post by prominent author Brian Solis, stopped me in my tracks.
I’m not quite sure when the “millennial” generation oozed backwards to eat up my demographic, but I am quite certain that I spent most of my life as a Gen X-er. A latch-key kid.
Reading further into Brian’s post, his statements about Millenials reinforce that I don’t belong. I’m certainly not a digital native.
In fact, I distinctly remember going to my friend’s house in Grade 12 so that we could use “e-mail.” They were one of about 10 families in town that had the internet. I remember learning to code HTML before you could use background images. That’s right, kids, once upon a time every website was black text on a grey background.
