Right now, the children in the families (and when I say "family" hear I mean the ones that still have children at home) are definitely on or ahead of the curve, and their ability to pick up any mainstream Social TV application that hits the market is high. However, the "parents" of today's family for the most part don't have that ability and frankly may never. To me, one of the main questions would be whether "family time" in fact evolves... whether it's activity related (watching TV) or space related (occupying the same space)... and which one of those is better? Can families still manage to come together effectively without using the same technologies?
