Understanding the differences in the generations is a fascinating concept. It reminds me of a story my sister (who is a missionary in Uganda) told of a game of charades with some Ugandan children.  One boy had to get the others to guess the word "phone". While those in my generation would probably do something like hold their hand to their face with their thumb and pinky out, mimicking talking on a telephone, this Ugandan boy held out his open palm and with the index finger on the other hand began making swiping gestures! Quite a contrast, and it illustrates the differences in the Net generation and previous generations.
