Rackspace Managed Hosting Commissions Social Research on Generation C
March 13, 2007 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Rackspace Managed Hosting has commissioned social research looking into the “way the web is shaping our lives”, it was announced recently. According to the results of the research, what is being termed as Generation C will be “nicer” then the current Generation X, and the web will play an important role in this.
Conducted by the Social Issues Research Centre (SIRC), the research suggests Generation C (where “C” stands for “content”, “connectivity”, “creativity”, “collaboration”, and “communication”) will be “more able to communicate with a wider cross section of people and find common ground across previously divisive differences as a result of proliferation of the Internet”.
"’Generation C' will be middle-aged by 2020. This generation has grown up under the web ideologies of open access, co-operation, exchange and sharing of information, as will all further generations. This will have profound implications for our society," explained Dr. Peter Marsh of SIRC.
