Ok, this is not a full fledged article - because I think I couldn’t develop it further that it is right now. The article in question is about the Google Generation. In fact, it’s about how the Google generation is not what meets the eye - the younger students aren’t actually using Google’s tools to it’s maximum. Why? In my opinion, it’s because of the way the apprehension of the web itself from the users. While the users who grew and saw Google rise and took advantage of the tools that dragged them from the Dark Ages, the younger users are unable to fully grasp this, as they live in world where Google is as it has always been. And so value has a different weight for those users.
This Oldbie/Newbie gap will be approached in a future article. For now, check this one, as I believe it gives good introduction to the theme.

Library of Congress’ vast photographic archive, on Flickr, for you to tag:
There are two main aims to The Commons project, starting with the pilot: firstly, to increase exposure to the amazing content currently held in the public collections of civic institutions around the world, and secondly, to facilitate the collection of general knowledge about these collections, with the hope that this information can feed back into the catalogues, making them richer and easier to search.
