Oops ... that was a faux pas, wasn't it? I swear I meant to type Hubski!

I've been curious about what life is like for college students with smartphones. When I was in college, practically at the dawn of time, we didn't have mobile phones _or_ the internet. I really don't think I would have had enough discipline to focus on school, with the distraction of social media and texting available. How do you guys who are in college manage it?

I think being around thoughtful people makes it easier to be in a thoughtful frame of mind. We all have complicated lives and thoughtfulness has to be a deliberate choice, at least for me it doesn't just happen. That's what brought me here to hubski, looking for a community of thoughtful people.
