Twittering...whatever

No. Seriously. Whatever. At the Evergreen conference there were dozens of new technology junkies all tweeting away about OSS and libraries. I figured if anyone had something interesting to tweet about, this group would have 'em in spades. When I got home, I did a search on twitter for anyone tweeting about the conference over the last few days. Do you know what I found? Lots and lots of banal, uninteresting, often nonsensical statements about the open source ils-s and libraries. None of it helped. None of it inspired me to learn more. No salient points were given. Nothing learned and definitely, nothing gained. I think this video clip says it all.
