For me (52 yrs old) it would actually be quite helpful to know what I should know/look into to keep up with current technologies. What is the current “internet canon” of tools, sites, and programs? And more general: How can I—at any given time—best find out which new things on the internet I should at least superficially learn in order not to be left behind?
It helps if you have kids. I have frequent discussions with my sons about why a certain new tech is worthwhile. And I challenge him to find solutions that I’d like to have but that don’t exist—or that I just don’t know about as it turns out in some cases. I discovered notion.com this way, many google suite features (he convinced me to use GChat), and the transcript panel of YouTube.
