This is my 184th reply to you. -I'm glad you found us pal and I appreciate you mentioning it to friends. I have found that it's really not for everyone. That said, it's not a generational thing, as is evidenced by any number of younger and older active hubski users. It's more of a preferential thing. I can't help but think that too many people dismiss the idea of joining a discussion community out of hand though and would really enjoy it if they gave it a shot.

At first glance, Hubski (and most aggregators) just look like a wall of text. That there are things happening and conversations occurring isn't immediately apparent. It takes an investment of time and I've had some of my closest friends not be willing to invest that time and I'm one of the founders of the site for cryin out loud. -Not the easiest sell to someone unfamiliar with how much fun and how interesting it can be.
