Jen (2:01:48 AM): hahaha you know what's funny?
Daddio (2:02:06 AM): what?
Jen (2:02:16 AM): you can see a generational difference in the way you approach IMing
Daddio (2:02:27 AM): how is that?
Jen (2:03:24 AM): you approach it as if someone were in the room talking to you and they have your full attention, there is a beginning and an end and you make sure to always say goodbye
Daddio (2:03:56 AM): oh... no, that's just you that has my full attention... I don't have a big buddy list yet
Jen (2:04:22 AM): people my age IM while they are doing all the other Internet stuff, they multitask, sometimes they talk to several people at once, and they don't say goodbye unless they are actually moving away from the computer
Jen (2:04:51 AM): even then it's acceptable if no one has said anything for about 5 minutes to not say anything when you leave
Jen (2:04:54 AM): it's just funny
Daddio (2:04:57 AM): ok I'll be lurking elsewhere... see you soon!
Jen (2:05:00 AM): later on lurker
Daddio (2:05:17 AM): hahaha
