Forever young

June 24, 2007

Here’s a nice reminder about the power of not knowing any better :

You tend to lose important resources when you get older - your friends and your naivete. You no longer get the benefit of having all of your friends do the homework for you. You no longer get the benefit of trying new stuff because you don’t know any better.

From: The most important assets you lose when you’re over 30

This should give pause to anybody who doesn’t understand the attraction of facebook and struggles to get excited about registering for another social networking site (me).

Or, those who insist that they have no reason to upgrade to Windows Vista, and that Windows XP is good enough, without even bothering to spend some time playing with it (you know who you are).

Perhaps those under 30 just spend less time reminiscing?
