Blogging has never been hip for them. They are not interested in tweeting. Texting and facebook continue to be the rage for them. I believe at this stage its just about friends, staying connected, a place of their own with no parents to interfere. So parents invade the blogging world, and the kids move out. And yes parents are taking over facebook, and I believe you will soon see the kids moving out. Parents will never be hip in the eyes of their children. Sad but true. Still 21 in my mind.

I am a blogger and I am one of the coolest, hippiest, grooviest people I know! However, as of next month I will be in the over 50 group and I did notice that the poll didn't even ask about my age group. So I guess there is no need for me to get all riled up. But you know us hip, kool, groovy people tend to be a little high strung LOL Blogging Not Hip????? I am a blogger and I am one of the coolest, hippiest, grooviest people I know!

(re younger people not blogging as much). It appears there are other more immediate ways to socially connect. It is interesting isn’t it? (re younger people not blogging as much).
