Say Anything
Did you happen to catch the piece in New York magazine ?
Say Anything: Kids, the Internet, and the End of Privacy: The Greatest Generation Gap Since Rock and Roll.The premise here is that kids who are coming of age in the post-Netscape era are somehow compelled towards sharing every aspect of their lives online. There’s a lot to this observation - it does feel generational.
But is it of the same scope as Rock n’ Roll? Hard to say. Rock has endured for fifty years now - online social sharing feels more short term and reactive. Privacy is out of fashion to be sure. I think it’s the natural outcome of decades of celebrity worship - and perhaps the real reason the web continues its growth. See, I got into online media to help fashion a platform for unconstrained creative and political expression. But for others, it simply may be a means to be better and more widely known.
