X Saves the World
How Generation X got the shaft but can still keep everything from sucking
Jeff Gordinier
| December 29, 2008
By Reg Nordman
So the secret is out. With the election of a Gen X President Obama, it is time for the boomers to just get out of the way.
Gen X has already brought sweeping changes, from Google, Craigslist, Youtube, Wikipedia, Tech billionaires, Nirvana, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and much more. While the world was not watching the slacker generation was doing all the work. Gordinier does a good job with his subject and it does make an old boomer like myself take notice. In such a short book, he packs a lot in, and I confess to not even knowing much about what was important to this generation. Very interesting to me and to the Gen Xers of course.
