I stumbled across this quiz today: http://pewresearch.org/millennials/quiz/

My score is 23, somewhere between the Baby Boomers and Generation X.

Thought it would make for some interesting discussion. What's your score? What do you think of the quiz?

I'm a real neo-luddite.....
 

ur Millennial score is 2!

The higher your score, the more you have in common with members of the Millennial generation.
Compare your score with that of the typical member of the following generations:
0 You ▼ 50 100   •4 Silent (b. 1928-1945) •11 Baby Boomer (b. 1946-1964) •33 Gen Xer (b. 1965-1980) •73 Millennial (b. 1981+)
 
That score is probably due to me owning a landline and mobile phone.
I only use the mobile when I'm on holidays........ and the very occasional text message...

I scored a 21.

I scored an 80, surprisingly enough. Must be the video games and Facebook profile.

 

[Gatepc]

My Millennial score is 47! Interesting thread!

 

[Magedark]

75 Here.

Funny, I don't think me and the millennial generation have much in common though.

 

[Rossinator]

My score is 89.
 
Time to go play some more video games...

74 - one into millenial bracket. I suppose owning a mobile phone which I invariably never use unless I actually need to and having a Facebook profile which I also never use boosted my score!

 

[ardgedee]

Huh. I'm gen-x by age and ueber-millenial by score. How I managed that without any piercings or text messages, I dunno.

 

[gopack87]

44 for me, probably due to no video games and minimal texting

97 here! and I was born in 1977. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing

 

[darcyb62]

Born in 62 and scored a 94.

Scored a 16.  Last video game I played was "Pong."  Got to stop wasting so much time with the youngsters here on Head-Fi.

12! And I was born in 1992...

 
I can't really argue with it, though; I hate Facebook and social networking, I avoid cell phones, I like big powerful computers and I loathe miniature computers like the iPad or Smartphones. The only concession I make to being modern is that I play a lot of video games, most of them BioWare games. But I just play those when I can't play pen and paper AD&D; I calculated that in the last year, approximately 65% of my waking, active time has been spent in some manner of role-playing related activity. I don't even like laptops - I think they're too small to be real computers

Also born in 1992, got a score of 92... I can agree with that, I definitely identify with my generation.
