What is the deal with naming generations with letters and how quickly can a new generation emerge? The Kaiser Family Foundation reports the discovery of a new generation – Generation M<\/a>. I guess the M stands for media ’cause it appears 8-18 year olds are increasing time spent with computers, the Internet and video games without reducing the time spent viewing television and listening to music. <\/p>\n

Maybe M stands for mult-tasking – the report indicates families have the television on while eating meals, listening to music while studying, etc. — sounds a lot like my house even though I am an OG (old guy).<\/p>\n

By the way, the Kaiser Foundation offers a streaming media summary and a panel discussion related to their findings. Something about this struck me as funny.
