"Try to learn something about anything, then try to learn anything about that something." Got that qoute from a passer-by. Indeed, you really can learn something from someone who is younger than you.
Just this last week, I got a new acquintance from a new forum. We chatted for a little while. I asked him why he was so motivated to keep up that new forum of his. His answer was so simple. It's because 'kikita ako dito!".
Out of curiousity, I asked him how. He said it was because of the ads. Google Ads.
Then it hit me. Of course, pay per click ads. Really, that's a nice little investment. ..
But why on earth have I forgotten that!? A so-called web designer looking for some assets as a freelancer, and yet I have forgotten what a little ad on a website could do! Ridiculous!!?!!
Anyway, it only shows that nowadays where technology changes almost every minute, one cannot really cope with every single detail of it. One must need to learn from another, even if it comes from someone younger than you. Technology really chooses no age. When a 40-year-old comes across something new to him, it might not be new a 12-year-old kid.
I'm not saying that, I am that 40-year-old. I was simply thinking about those old people who seemed to be [not so] illiterate when it comes to everything computerized yet so knowlegeable about practical things in life. Why not let it be balanced? Why not make it so that older people know a lot more about advance technology than those younger ones?
Just wondering.
As I said, Technology chooses no age. And older ones still learn from younger ones, technology-wise.
