Millennial Appeal: How to Design a Website to Attract the Younger Audience

Millennial Appeal: How to Design a Website to Attract the Younger Audience | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

As Baby Boomers slowly make their exit and Generation X and Millennials emerge, you need to take this into consideration when deciding how you’d like your website to be designed. The younger audience is much more tech savvy than previous generations, and their values and styles of shopping and using the internet have changed. In summary, millennials are after a few things: fast and convenient information, content that’s funny and personal, and products and services that focus on their long term goals rather than instant gratification. Let’s break down further how you can specifically build a website that attracts the younger audience.

The internet is your library, with these 12 websites for free audiobooks

The internet is your library, with these 12 websites for free audiobooks | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Audiobooks bring together the best of both worlds: The joys of a good story and the convenience of easy listening. They also often serve as a great way to pass time, whether you’re cooking up your favorite dish or out for a long drive. While audiobooks may lack the feel and sweet smell of a traditional book, a well-done voiceover can do more than make up for the loss of aesthetics. It can be an engaging ride that is both worthwhile and convenient on-the-go. Unfortunately, beaming books into your ears can be pricier than you might expect.
