Explanation of video: "Technology codes our minds, changes our OS. Apple products have done this extensively. The video shows how magazines are now useless and impossible to understand, for digital natives. It shows real life clip of a 1-year old, growing among touch screens and print. And how the latter becomes irrelevant. Medium is message. Humble tribute to Steve Jobs, by the most Important person : a baby." Uploaded [by UserExperienceWorks] on Oct 6, 2011
Taylor asked a question:
My question to you guys is what is this doing to young children?
There are a lot of parents that hand their 2 or 3-year-old
child their phone when the child is upset
just to keep them quiet.
It doesn't take long for the kids to learn how to work it
or how to get what they want,
so what effect is this having on the young kids who are still growing?
I just thought the video visually answered his question but I will be interested in finding out more about what he asks - especially
"what effects technology at such young ages has on kids who are still growing" and how it might interfere with development, as suggested in this video.

Thanks for the question!
Also - I wasn't sure when I responded to Taylors comment - I mentioned the 'baby' saying "it doesn't work" - listening to the video again that is exactly what the baby says about the magazine.
