GENERATION NEXT !!!

These days a certain someone who doesnt have one arse to do in work is constantly nagging me to make blog posts so that they could leave comments...well yes!!!
I guess this is what having a bro-in-law is all about :) Happy Dale ???

EXAMPLE 1
So watching the Vh1 Big '06 Awards last night and d biggest online fame award went to someone that most of you all wudnt recognise unless your a blogger or you tube user. The winner was youtube's lonelygirl15. Her video blog caught more than 2 million views....

.....so Im thinking, WOW...look at how everything in the online world is creeping up into the reall world, video bloggers are getting Vh1 awards!!! And whereas before, only geeks would know who lonelygirl15 was, now everybody knows, whether you are into the whole Internet thing or not !!!


EXAMPLE 2
Another example is the shifting role of web inclusion in television advertisements. This is becoming a rapid necessity of product and company advertising, to include the website now at the end of an advert on tv saying "For more information log on to Company XYZ's website at www.xyz.com". The Pontiac car advertisement on tv goes as far as to show the Google homepage with the word "pontiac" typed in the search field and say for more information on Pontiac cars just google 'pontiac'! WOW!


EXAMPLE 3
Of interesting note, you can advertise your online company by advertising your url address in a television advertisement. An online company advertised themselves with a tv ad that tell you that you can now customize your postage stamps online with your own picture.
(*very very innovative by the way )
For those of you interested, its www.phototstamps.com
Its amazing how the roles of advertising on the web and television are changing, shifting and becoming more and more intertwined...complimentary even as media mediums and shifting as far as one medium is actually now facilitating the other...............so intriguing watching the paradigm shifts !!!!!!!!!!!

I foresee there will come a time when watching a tv advert will end with the url address will be a norm and an advert that doesnt give a url address will be deemed as retarded!!!!
What an honour it is for me to be amongst this generation of target audience to witness the inception of such an advertising role shift...to be witness to adverts before url inclusion and adverts after when url inclusion will be a norm :)


I would honestly prefer not to be born in any other era than today's generation - an era of technological redefinition!
We are not Generation X, neither are we Generation Y..... we are Generation WWW. !
(* read as generation www dot)

Kaylee, your powers of observation are second to none.

Technology is now changing pop culture faster than celebrities change spouses. I think Generation X or Next will socialize more and more using the latest high-tech devices and by this I don’t mean the ever popular solar powered vibrators. Gone are the days when the first encounter with the opposite sex would be a fleeting, but intentional glance at a greasy KFC or the even greasier steps of JFK. The first, and maybe most encounters will be from behind an AMD, or God forbid, an Intel chip. Shyness and single personalities will be a thing of the past. People already have multiple personality disorders, one for every chat room.

I am still amazed at lonelygirl15’s popularity which is in itself a sort of oxymoronish type of statement. I think I am mixing up popularity with loneliness but I doubt she is lonely anymore. It reminded me how REM changed with fame and fortune. They did change, didn’t they?

It’s amazing that products are being advertised on TV and sold to consumers based on a Google search. This is even further proof that Microsoft is not going to rule the world as previously advertised, but Google. You are right; every product has a website and I understand no new product is named or launched until the website is registered. Unfortunately, my own website is no longer number one on Google for a search of Mayaro but number two. On the bright side, it is number one for tambran ball.

I wasn’t going to bring this up but since it is part of pop culture I did order me a set of Photo Stamps. I uploaded some photos, which I received from caring friends and family showing Britney revealing her latest fashion statement to the World. Naturally I ordered the super-lickable version…..as presents for my friends, and the Gen X stamp collectors of the World.
