OK poop is coming out

Blurb to put into your conference ad if you don't want me to come:

There was so much energy in the room - with everyone taking pictures, blogging, podcasting, and twittering - it was reminiscent of SXSW.

Why yes, I have set up a twitter thing, though I update it maybe twice a week currently (I'm "jasonmcintosh"). And I might go anyway - eh, it's $50, and I could stand to punch up my local network a little. But that description just makes me blanch, still.

I'm not really so negative about it, but it's not hard to see why so many are. Praise for Twitter more often seems to take the form of apologia.

The idea of a bunch of people sitting around twittering... ugh.
