Only they're exploring in ways the over 45 groups couldn't because the tools didn't exist. if they had, we would have been using them; the under 30 crowd wonder what being a Hippie was all about and think that was silly. It's just context. Many are using these tools to collaborate, developing new ways of thinking and working together to make ideas happen. Once they grow older, expect to see these tools evolve, and their uses evolve to have very meaningful impacts on society.

Your past generation created growth, created ideas that worked, created prosperity by working more than 50 hours a week (mostly around 80) not by being a watcher of what cyber reality is doing...think about this just for a minute.
