Sandra,
you illustrate a key idea here. Every generation is some type of technological "junkie" the forms just change. The printing press was new technology when it first came out. It's a matter of helping the generations understand each other & not judge.

lol! hey Geo...just saw this was from you. I'm a gen X right? lol
lol! I can relate...I'm a genX yet also an info junkie and use technology daily. I've shunned the television years ago and rely on internet for my primary mode of information. I'm still working on my baby boomer parents attitude that I'm spending too much time with 'technology'. (I attempt to convert them or at least have them understand in between their weekly television shows/dramas that they view.)
Adapting to the newer technology has proven to be, in many ways, helpful. I teach imaging software and even though I am solidly in the boomer generation (born 1948) I have had to adapt as my profession (photographer) has undergone sweeping changes. As aware of these changes as I am I find it necessary to point out to my gen Y students that even though we are currently going through the biggest tech revolution our craft has ever seen the things that make a good image remain rooted in principals that have evolved over centuries.
We can all rub off and learn from each other!
