Lately, I’ve met a lot of 20-somethings who are just as clueless about social networks and their new cell phones as their 50-something parents. But even as I hit into this side of 60, I’m still finding stuff like this (from CollegeHumor.com) and chuckling.

I just have no idea how most people over 50 use technology in other parts of the country. Are they as totally clueless as some people seem to assume? Or are those of us living in tech centers so immersed in the next big thing that we’re oblivious to the rest of the world?

I still remember developing the first fax modems for PCs in

the mid-80’s and thinking, "Wow! This is really going to change things and make fax machines obsolete."

Little did I know that e-mail was right around the corner. And now social networks – Facebook, Twitter, MySpace – are predicted to evolve into the instant communication tools for the times, making e-mail a thing of the past.

These past 25 years have brought so much change in technology, it’s been like packing in the last 600 years spanning the development of Gutenberg’s printing press in the 1400’s to the emergence of television networks of the 20th century.

As this is supposed to be a tech blog about social networking and all things new, what do some of you think? Is this Moore’s Law applied to information and should we expect a lot more change in the next 5 years?
