My fave tech-lingo site, NetLingo, has come along with another classic phrase:

digital native

as opposed to a digital immigrant

A “digital native” refers to a person who is born after 1984 and uses computers. As opposed to a “digital immigrant” –one who had to learn their way around the Internet– digital natives have always been surrounded by the culture of online technology.

Crumbs! That means I am a digital immigrant – and in fact when I think about it, there were walkmans when I grew up, PCs ran on Command Line Interface, and Mobiles ran on an analogue network – getting older is a terrible thing 😉
