Talk:IGeneration

Untitled
The iGen as some have referred to it as will have the potential to be the most knowledgeable with information at their finger tips.

I think it was Dr Jenny Gimpel who did a study recently on the memory of teenage boys, what she found is that they retain nearly nothing in their memory since everything can be googled or looked up on wikipedia much easier than it is to memorise it.

-If we're going to turn wikipedia into an advertising platform we could at least endorse somebody more deserving than apple.

-- It depends on what is separating the generations. If we're talking about the Internet Generation, don't give it to Apple. If we're talking about the mobile generation, I love my Android, but fair's fair, give it to Apple. -- I'm not sure what to break it by, because this quote in the Generation Z article is confusing: The youngest of the generation were born during a minor fertility boom[citation needed] around the time of the US Global financial crisis of the late 2000s decade, ending around the year 2010, with the next "iGeneration" succeeding.

--- There it sounds like iGeneration is the successor to Generation Z. But here in disambiguation it says iGeneration is synonymous to Generation Z, and even links to the same article.

--- So then it seems that if iGeneration is synonymous to Generation Z then iGeneration is not a great term since it's the Internet Generation. However if it's the generation to follow the Internet Generation, then I could see going with iGeneration since they will grow up with iPad apps for their toys.

-- In general Android has followed Apple by filling in competitive holes. The iPod, iPhone and iPad are the clear zeitgeists.
