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.

yeah, that sounds wholly unappealing to me too, like all the cell phone ads that suggest that you can stay "connected" by completely ignoring the actual people you're with.

loud twitter especially is a menace to LJ.

A loudtwitter post appeared in an LJ on my (extremely small) f-list and I thought, "Oh my god I'm going to have to drop them!" Fortunately it was a one-time thing.

one of my favorite LJ people started twittering, mostly, as is often the case, because of a female he fancied, and of course he has to loud twitter every day. Thankfully, he cuts them, and I've stopped reading.
