The Difference in Gen Y, X & Boomer Communication

I saw this on http://www.themarketingstudent.com/ and thought it was very interesting. It's about the differences between communication and increasing urgency through the generations. There is an increasing lack of face to face contact and phone contact by Gen Y, and postal mail has become extinct! These are important considerations to take into account for future planning... socially and in business.
