Forrester did a recent survey comparing the two groups. I found it very interesting (and true!). The short of the story is that Gen Yers (ages 18-28) are setting the pace for new technology and adoption. They spend more time online for leisure AND work rather than watching the “old” TV. While Gen Xers (ages 29-42) are traditionally using technology when it supports their lifestyle or intersect with their personal needs. They are saying that Gen Yers are really the first native online population. Wow!
So this is really interesting stuff mainly because it’s the group that YOU and US at Going Interactive will be marketing to more and more over the next (million years – ha ha). To see the charts and get more details check out the Survey on Marketing Charts.
Feel free to drop us a line if you’d like to take your communications to the next level.

Going Interactive recently wrapped production of a DVD video presentation for Kawneer’s Sustainable Products initiative.
GI worked with Function ATL on the piece.
Apple has done it again. The app store seems to have a number of really great items in it (Pandora, Shazam, Twitteriffic – to name a few). If you don’t already have an iPhone… well, you may consider it soon. It really is a laptop in the palm of your hands. Check out your iTunes app store to see more.

Wow – great research article about time spent on PC’s vs. TV, Radio, Magazines, etc.

Teens and adults (those age 13-34) with broadband connections now spend more time in front of computers than watching blockbuster movies or reading novels and fashion magazines, the study found.”
