Mashable’s Jennifer Van Grove reports on a recent Pew Internet and American Life Project study which concludes that Gen Y Will Not Grow Out of Social Networking.

“By 2020, members of Generation Y (today’s ‘digital natives’) will continue to be ambient broadcasters who disclose a great deal of personal information in order to stay connected and take advantage of social, economic, and political opportunities. Even as they mature, have families, and take on more significant responsibilities, their enthusiasm for widespread information sharing will carry forward.”
