I'd like to respond to Kate's steemtant that Where are the other senior members of our profession, and why are they not contributing to the online discussion ?I think for those of us who attended the leadership orientation session at the SAA Annual Meeting we have seen three different generations discussed. For those who were not there, you can imagine, I'm sure, what I am talking about. We have today's leaders who are in their fifties or sixties (or older) who have email and can surf the internet, but aren't into Web 2.0. We have those leaders (like Tom Hyry and Kate Theimer) who are in their 30s and 40s and who are in the middle, those who are not afraid to explore Web 2.0 technologies and find useful (and fun!) ways to us them to personal and professional benefit, the latter for ourselves or for our institutions. The third group are those new archivists in their 20s who are so comfortable with Web 2.0 that it is a part of who they are and what they do. Of course, there are exceptions in all these groups, but I think we see three generations of leaders and we need to prepare.Today's leaders, with exceptions like Peter Hyrtle, will not be found here. They have little interest, if any, and no time (they say) to get involved with Web 2.0 technologies and how they are being influenced and are influencing our profession. The SAA core leaders of five to ten years from now are people like Tom and Kate and others who use Web 2.0 to their advantage. Hopefully, and I don't want to sound like a broken record, but hopefully we in the middle generation will train our successors today's students and young archivists and they will use the foundations we have built on Web 2.0 helping our profession to give us a better profession than we could have ever dreamed of.
