I have some outgoing friends who use no Web 2.0, but they were also slow in mobile phone adoption, but I have other friends who are not real techy but love trying out new social media applications. Most of my friends who experiment with new social media applications have some in depth technical knowledge, but this is not always the case. I think that we are currently in an era of change, which will be quite different in 10 years, that a person's exposure to technology and applications is influenced by their circle of friends and workmates, while in the future everyone will have some knowledge about all of the major social applications and platforms Interestingly from my perspective, is that assumptions about age groups can be difficult to make, as it depends upon the personality and life situation of the individual cheers Pete Nadisha

The survey you are conducting is impressing me because it helps to gain knowledge how different age groups are using web 2.0 tools in their day today life. I actually wanted to add this point to the post "21 and web 2.0" but I couldnt find a space to add comments. Anyway I just wanted to add something to that because we think Gen Y is really interested in using these new tools and technologies. But I have experience working with a guy in one of my project teams who is only using MSN and hotmail to check his emails. And during the project we had to use Google Docs to collaborate team documents and it was so hard to get this guy to work with Google Docs because he doesnt prefer to use any of those new things. And I was so surprised to hear that.... He doesnt have at least a facebook account which makes me more surprised. So I understood that there also can be few people in Gen Y that dont really use and not interested in web 2.0 tools. Great work Pete and keep it up Hi Pete
