I had an interesting chat with a local Internet Media company founder late this summer. He told me that he needed to hire a "face" for the organization that would be more appealing to the masses, specifically the real-time web, social media (Web 2.0) masses... more commonly referred to as Generation Y. He figured that youth trumped experience from the point of view that anyone over the age of 35 would not be acceptable to the Gen Y users of his site.
