Postcards From the Edge

I am envious of today's teens and college students. They really have a leg up on the rest of us who did not grow up with nearly as much digital technology. Thankfully, we can read what they write and take it all in. Here are two links to check out.

Notes From the Digital Frontier is a collaboration between students of Ball State University (David Letterman's alma mater) and MediaPost. The goal of the blog is to link media-savvy undergrads with Madison Avenue.

For more on how digital technology is empowering today's youth, read this piece on CNET today. It's about an ordinary eight year old who digs Wikipedia and YouTube more than TV.
