Life after Internet
Connected mobility--it is among the highest of human aspirations. To be free to roam and explore, while at the same time remaining tethered to loved ones, the office, the world. The everyday reality of that long-elusive freedom is a hallmark of the cohort I call the Bubble Generation, those men and women who have come of age after the Dotcom bubble burst.
Proof of that comes from a recent report out of the Pew Internet and American Life Project. According to their study, some 34 percent of Internet users have already exercised connected mobility by logging onto the Internet using a wireless connection either at home, work or elsewhere (like Starbucks). That means one-third of Internet users, either via a laptop computer, a handheld device (PDA), or cell phone, have cruised the net or checked email using means such as WiFi broadband or cell phone networks.
