Millennials Taking Over the World One Twitter Update at a Time

May 17, 2008 by Brian James ·

During my Saturday morning nerdy internet surf, I stumbled upon this Millennials article on Radar by FREEwilliamsburg founder Robert Lanham. It’s an interesting article about Generation X vs. the uprising of Generation Y, aka Millennials.

Millennials - The Next Great Generation

Millennials are younger. Healthier. They got to do anal in high school. They think updating a spreadsheet while posting to a Twitter account about gossip on perezhilton.com is an essential corporate skill…. An egregious example of generational bias lies in Gen X’s stigma as the “MTV Generation,” a title that was always intended as a pejorative. … Ironically, when applied to the Millennials, who are similarly affected by the Internet, possessing a short attention span becomes an accolade. They just call it multitasking.

It’s really a great read and Lanham brings up some great points, but fortunately, I’m not worried because I was born in 1985. That’s right. I’m part of the 80 million Millennials vs. the 30 million Gen Xers. While Lanham reaches out for a call to arms, us Millennials have already begun to mobilize and steal your jobs, your sweet apartments and your wives too.

Expect more from me on the mobilization of Millennials within the next couple weeks.
