Georgia, The iPhone and The Future

We were talking with my parents when Georgia (my 3 1/2 year old daughter) started playing with Rachael’s iPhone. This is something she has done for about 12 months now (since I got my iPhone) and she is very good at it.

She can unlock it, flick between screens and select her games and spelling apps. She also likes taking photos. This is something completely normal to her.

My dad turned to me and said “she is going to be an IT expert, she will know everything about everything”

I replied “No, she will know a lot about how to use IT and ‘knowing IT’ won’t be a thing someone of her age does.” I finished with “She will know what works, what doesn’t, and just do it”

In short, we are all just marking time until the next generation takes this revolution and uses it as naturally as a pen and paper.

I am excited for what I will be able to learn from her.
