Covers: Those in the Net Generation (aka Gen Y, Millennial Generation, or Generation Next) are growing up in a world very different from past generations. The Internet, its Google-like viewpoints, and the other technologies that now exist are changing the way we see and interact with the world. This session will discuss trends, research, and technologies relating to this cohort.
There is space for 20 people. If you want to reserve a spot you can do one of the following:
