Is the yellow pages generation defunct? Where do you see yourself?

Moving forward with social media means recognising generation Y

Thanks to Steve Clarke and his social media boot camp today, our team is well on the way to driving forward the essential social network that is the marketplace of the now and the future.

Steve helped us to get to the pain that businesses and individuals are experiencing. The yellow pages generation (aka baby boomers) will be superceded by generation Y ( y fronts sticking out of their pants, a.k.a. youth of today) and there's a lot of catching up to do.

So what are the problems? There are 3 groups in pain right now.

1. The redundancy generation (50+ people who have been made redundant, are not able to find work and are forced into the option of starting their own business.
2. What I call the Predundancy generation - redundant before they even have a job. That group of 16-25 year olds that face a jobless future.
3. Those that have a job and need a second income.

Today in Steve Clarke's boot camp we discovered how to use the power of social networking to create the economy you want. Even if you are not prepared to drop your pants a couple of inches and show your Y-fronts to the world, you can still participate in the socail media revolution.

It starts with not a phone call after searching through the yellow pages, but a tweet from a blue bird.
