Google assert that 80% of millennials are made up of Gen C, YouTube’s core audience. Some believe we should treat Generation C as an attitude and mindset.

- the tendency to form active communities rather than remain passive;
- a gravitation toward social media sites where they can participate in discussions about different ideas and get involved in cultural conversations;
- a desire to be in control of their own lives, and a contentedness with complexity;
- a desire to work in more creative industries and be less restricted by rigid social structures.
