Week 3 EOC: My Demographics

As a Generation of the "Generation Y" we are known to be more " a complex generation with diverse interests" and that we're " Immersed in the digital world from an early age, Gen Y is at the forefront of mashing up how we communicate, entertain, and innovate" says Examining Generation Y: Stats, Demographic, Segments, Prediction. I fully agree, The Generation Y are more advanced and eager to learn. "they seek diverse communities online and offline, are idealistic and socially conscious, and they crave authenticity. Underneath those generalizations are mindsets that drive their behaviors and choices" is this true because, of the birth of myspace, facebook, and twitter (social networks) helped the connections to the world. the invention of iphone also helped the yearning for the most high tech device. We constantly want the updated "everything" and always wanting a advance. Basically, if there is electronic the Generation Y will always be thriving. Sparxoo.com also provided the statistic chart of showing the population size of each generation.



I find it interesting that and article Surprise-age demographics of the USA by generation from Chris Brown states: "It’s interesting to me that the “Pioneer” generation is half the size of the “Post Modern”. (You may think of them as the “silent” generation and the “Gen-Y” UPDATE “Gen-X” generation.)" As the chart below provides a visual understand that the population is increasing in numbers. From the ttp://www.findem.com.au website breaks down the years of the generation clear from birth years: 
1910-1928 77-95 1,343,966 Boomer Parents
