Being a digital native is an interesting concept, and being a part of the group known as 'digital natives' has a different meaning for everyone. In my opinion, people who grew up in the age of the internet, or who have immersed themselves in the world of technology are digital natives. Those in the latter group chose to join the digital bandwagon, but us who were born into it didn't have a choice. Or do any of us have a choice anymore? Society is already quite technologically advanced, and is heading more that way everyday. I fit into the first group. I have never known of anything but the internet, and didn't think it was revolutionary when it was created. All of my friends have cell phones and regularly use the internet, in fact they have become reliant on it. Although I am not the most technologically savvy person I have ever met, I do rely on e-mail and cell phones plenty. Now small children have cell phones and are iPad experts. Social networking, online classes, and online bill pay have become normal when they weren't fifteen years ago. The internet is great, but what would happen if it one day went away? How would us digital natives fare in a world without technology?
