>Gen-Xers got the same thing
GenX got ignored. The baton was passed from Boomers to Millennials. I guess we were all taking a bathroom break or something.
GenX UI, at least on the Web, was TABLE layouts with spacer GIFs dictated to us by Boomers who wanted brochures. Our crowning design achievement still lives on in WiFi router Web management tools and phpBB.
Yo, anybody going to the Phish concert? I need a ride.

Dense with information, tools that empower the user to sort, search, and filter. Ability to express yourself via avatars and signatures, multiple color schemes and interface options.

- beders 5y agoTears for Fears is touring again and I'm planning to catch Steve Hackett as well. Still being talked into seeing a-ha and Duran Duran. Go Gen-X!
- jmkr 5y agoYes, the rescheduled MSG New Years Phish run, then summer tour.
