If you haven’t seen it, definitely worth a look. Particularly if you want to try and understand even a smidgen of what it means to be Generation M/Y. I could give you a more detailed assessment, but there’s a risk that I spoil it for you.

Linked here, and in my VodPod in the sidebar as well.
Let me know what you think.

I’ve forwarded the YouTube link to my professor husband who’s well ahead of the curve. He’s also a William Gibson fan . . .
