This website page was posted on December 5th 2007, so is relatively up-to-date.
The author starts with commenting on how when the term of digital immigration and its counterpart came out in 2001, he seen it as “a powerful new way of thinking about generational differences about media literacy education”.
He outlines the definitions that where originally outlined for the term digital immigration by X. His article covers the concept which is something that came to my mind, that by referring to all young people as digital immigrant’s counterpart, it does not take into account the fact that not all young people have access to technology or are experienced with it.
The website article has been produced by a professional, whom also writes books. There is a few references, but not that many. There is room for people to leave their comments on his article and develop debates/opinions with others.

So it's a bit web 2.0-ish then?
Yes, it is a very up to date webpage in terms of keeping up with the current phenomnens of the webpage, the comment section had responses so it is obviously used by those whom are considered 'digital natives!'
