you guys are so young...

**webmistress** · 04-12-2006, 05:54 AM

You making me nervous. I didn't realize that some of you were still teenagers? Are you kiddin me....

It was hard enough for me 2 believe that Ryan just turned 20.

I am an OLD LADY, (umm, 29) who just got into this webmaster thingy, so I didn't realize that so many young people would be site owners, and so successful and knowledgable.....I guess I should have known since we are in the digital age.

Nothing against you guys, you should be proud. And by the time you're as Old as I am, you'll be at the top of the game.

But, I just thought I was talking to a bunch of guys in their mid 20's or older.

**angisson** · 04-12-2006, 05:58 AM

I am 16... by the time I get 30-40 I will know nothing about this, it will be changed so much.

I just got used too PHP, and now ROR is comming out, I don't know how much I can handle LOL

"We" are getting younger everyday, I found a 15 year old coder that made a great website....lol

so yea, its not for old blokes anymore... its for the "new youth"

**markblair** · 04-12-2006, 06:09 AM

The future is definitely moving toward younger people being able to accomplish more sooner. It's already there really. I'm 31 though so I started out on some of these things late. It's still fun to work with some very knowledgeable people that range in age from 13 to their 50's and 60's.

**Ryan** · 04-12-2006, 06:45 AM

Yep, it's not surprising to see early teens doing their own designing and coding. Typically, the younger you are, the easier it is to learn and absorb new things...so kids can pick up on this stuff so quickly..will definitely be interesting to see where we will be in 10 years seeing as how much has changed over the last 10 years alone.

20 years ago computers barely existed....10 years ago we hadn't even entered the technology boom....and now the majority of US homes have a computer in them. We're also entering the days when the generation who grew up with computers (myself and those a little bit older) are starting to buy homes and enter the workforce...things are really going to change as these generations enter the marketplace

She called herself old at 29... my word, that makes me ancient!

**illusion** · 04-12-2006, 07:33 AM

It seems like I meet that criteria, of a teenager

Although I am not saying my age on a public forum, could give me bad rep

**RedMatrix** · 04-12-2006, 08:56 AM

I will be 32 on the 7th of May. I must be old too, lol.

**bongo** · 04-12-2006, 09:33 AM

**Caddyman** · 04-12-2006, 12:39 PM
