Creating Virtual Community Among Youth

The latest issue of YouthWorker Journal has an article by Renee Altson entitled Virtual Community: The New Frontier.

Reading it reminded me of something I heard Leonard Sweet say once. He said that those of my generation (I was born in 1959) tend to see the internet as an information source - a place to find facts, data, etc. But those who are younger than myself tend to see the internet as a community - a place to make friends, grow relationships, etc.
