"Internet Revolution: A Generational Story"
A personal account of what it was like for an “average person” to experience the Internet growing up.
Beginning with Apple and Microsoft in the 1980s, Internet Revolution: A Generational Story distills what it looked and felt like using the Internet in its early forms, when people doubted its viability, to becoming the defining technology of a generation.

"The Internet Revolution: A Generational Story" examines the story of a generation intertwined and shaped by the Internet revolution. They are an "inter-generation" that have a memory of a non-internet age and also the first generation impacted by the rapid technological explosion due to the internet and automation. Marc takes the reader on a journey of discovery and coming of age with stories from people he has met on his world travels. He eloquently uses these stories to paint a picture of our modern world and where we’re headed in the future.

"In this insightful work, Marc Jorgensen examines the vital subject of the first generations to not know life without the Internet. This work takes the reader down an interesting and fascinating sojourn regarding the challenges, benefits, and most importantly, changes of living life with the Internet, iPhones, and constant connection (and as Marc explains, disconnection.) The research can be surprising to hear and Marc analyzes it perfectly - leaving the reader to draw their own conclusions. This is a must read for everyone - especially the iGeneration."
-Livi Whitaker, online journalist, and blogger
“Marc describes the new “trust economy” enabled by the Internet, in a fascinating way! In my own work, which doesn’t permit public reviews or testimonials, I am often surprised how millennials extend trust to financial advisors based on an online profile. This book explains how we got here.”
-Marcio Silveira, CFA working with extensive experience working with Millenials
