lunch break over for us; getting ready to start back on the #hhlib2 conf; next up: "mobilizing libraries for today's students" #
i'm a next gen/millenial 🙂 one of the oldest ones, but still fit the description. #hhlib2 #
Palfrey and Gasser call millenials a "population" not a "generation" #hhlib2 #
today's students: blend academic and social lives #hhlib2 #
@joshuamneff @cmairn @BAGebb but us millenials r taking over the world #hhlib2 i'm actlly stuck bw gen x & millenials @ times. relate 2 both #

93.9% of freshman (college) own laptop; 66% of college students own Internet-capable cell phone #hhlib2 why aren't schools harnessing this? #
@annehaines both; has made my life easier in some ways (iPhone=always connected), but, info overload hit squicker. jury still out. #hhlib2 #
@annehaines true; i read much more when i'm sitting in a chair or in bed; phone isn't ideal for that kind of setting #hhlib2 in reply to annehaines #

anthropologists studying students: "Outreach efforts shld use student folk terms lke stress, confusion, frustration & having a life" #hhlib2 #
it depends on approach; cld happen! RT @helgagrace: Good luck making the public librarians put a face on their online presence. #hhlib2 #
@helgagrace depends on the library; i work w lots of small libs, where some of that fear isnt present #hhlib2 in reply to helgagrace #
@annehaines its nice, isn't it? in reply to annehaines #
@annehaines i think that thx 2 tech, we're all much more connected than ever b4; #hhlib2 conf cldn't happen/u&i cldn't be "talking" wo tech in reply to annehaines #
@helgagrace right; just like @joshuamneff said… #hhlib2 in reply to helgagrace #
@annehaines no its not good; i have the same problem; and need to get over it; will never relax otherwise in reply to annehaines #
@helgagrace no problem; "hang out" w kansans like @joshuamneff & i; we'll make u positive again 🙂 we have problems, but stay optimistic! in reply to helgagrace #

@cclibrarian sorry 🙂 i live in lawrence; my hatred of all things mizzou has been influenced by where i live 🙂 in reply to cclibrarian #
