So, which generation do you belong to, really?

S brought to our attention this little quiz that defines which Generation one would fall under... and I found the article in The Straits Times (Sat, 10 May 2008).

I'm proud to be born a Generation X but have kept up with the times and can now be part of Generation Y.

And in case you're wondering, I scored 14 points.

=================================================

WHICH generation you belong to should not be defined by your age but by how you use the various forms of media. Boston Globe columnist Penelope Trunk came up with this test, with input from Harvard University media expert Margaret Weigel.
