The Next Generation Will Leave Us in the Dust  

Nathaniel Mott puts into words what I was discussing with my girlfriend today following this: kids today are getting started with technology through some amazing gadgets that can only get better and more powerful.

Watching children use technology is baffling. At nineteen, I’m hardly some old man, walking around in his bathrobe, complaining about UNIX and how kids these days don’t even know their way around the command line. But somehow this three-year-old makes me feel like I’m outdated. I will never truly use the iPhone or iPad in the way that he does, with the understanding of someone that has grown up with this kind of technology.

With the right open-mindedness to the fact that kids will have a better understanding of new technologies than we do, the best legacy we can leave to the next generation is a solid platform to build upon.
