In true Gen Y fashion I'm going to the most reputable source I know of, Wikipedia for our definition. (What ever happened to Encyclopedia Britannica, and do teachers even require you to cite sources in APA format anymore?? Or can you just list web pages for sources. Kids don't know how easy it is to use "The Google".)
As I stated, the reputable source Wikipedia -
Generation Y, sometimes referred to as "Millennials" or "Net Generation" is the group of people born anywhere between the second half of the 1970s and anywhere from the mid 1990s to around the year 2000. . . Several alternative terms include Echo Boomers, iGeneration, and Google Generation. Generation Y is generally considered to be the last generation of Americans wholly born in the 20th century. Using the broadest definition commonly cited as of 2005, Generation Y included Americans in their mid-twenties or younger who were born before January 1, 2000.
Well there ya have it, and if it's on the internet, it must be true.
And to a further extent if it's on Wikipedia, it's as good as science.
