Are you smarter than a 4 year old on the web

So, are you keeping up with the web or not?

I hear a lot of people talking about Web 2.0 but did you know that my 4 year old nephew Connor is up with Web 3.0. He may not know it but as I watch him on the computer he logs onto the websites he wants, finds Footy Club songs on you tube, sets up favourites, plays games, he even opens Google and asks me to spell what he is looking for so it comes up. However, that still does not actually take the cake.You see I have been watching him do this for some time now. What took me most by surprise was when he took my mobile phone, clicked start and found the internet. Once there he decided to type AFL.com.au and away he went. When I found him and kindly removed my phone from his sticky fingers I saw that the AFL page was already loaded.

So back to my question: Are you smarter than a 4 1/2 year old? Are you ready for what these children are going to be like as internet/mobile phone users? Or in businesses, are we ready? Can your customers buy online, update details or make changes to an account etc ? You can already see ANZ jump onto iPhones, so take some time to think about how all of this is going to effect your business. You may not be in it for long if you don't. Just a thought...

Which also poses the question... As well as bwireds mainstream web site strategy and design for the larger screens, will you be offering sites suited to the smaller mobile phone screen? Perhaps as a bonus, existing bwired clients can have a freeby mobile phone design thrown in as a goodwill gesture??

Point taken on the 4 year old, my 9 year old is googling as well if not better than me, as for gaming, I am continually booting him off my machine to discover a very warm and sticky mouse. Even my 7 year old daughter has discovered you tube... I call her the broadband bandit.

Thanks

Interesting comment Matt I nice try..but to answer your question Yes we do have mobile versions today that we can apply to your website. We have created a few of these where new designs have to be made to you website with a different URL ie www.bwired.com.au/mobile and away you go.. Of course you can not fit alot of content onto these mobile sites but they can be very effective for database collections and competitions.
