The Millennial Generation

The Millennial generation is one of its own.  We are not like any of the previous generations. A positive trait of the Millennials is being tech savvy.  Technology was never something we had to learn or become familiar with because we grew up with it.  We always want to buy the newest thing. First, it was a flat screen TV and now everyone is wanting the new smart TV.  Another example would be cell phones.  As soon as there is a new version or model of whatever phone we upgrade. The Millennials have all sorts of electronic gadgets around their home (TV, cell phone, iPod, laptop, tablet, gaming system, etc.)

A bad trait would be poor communication.  Because of all these gadgets we tend to ignore face to face connections.  We are constantly texting on our phones, listening to our iPods, or playing a game on our tablet.  We use these gadgets to pass the time and we don't even realize that we are passing up valuable human interactions.

  1. I like how you tied both good and bad traits to technology. I also like how you used texting as an example of poor communication; most people don't think twice to text when they are with other people.
