I agree how twitter helped me too in my online business venture. And I loved the fast, easy and very convenient way to exchange or share ideas with people even miles and miles away.

Game-changing? Perhaps for some, but in my opinion (not an attendee), it sounds a bit like a real-world event being shoe-horned into something else for the sake of fad.

Rick, I understand about wanting variety in the life tweeting. But some observations by panelists resonate and some don’t. The proof is in multiple tweets.

I read Gary Vaynerchuk’s line about the internet not even old enough to have sex yet, about 50 times over 3 hours. With this in mind, if I ever had a chance to contribute to a twitter stream, I’d observe the rise and fall of keystroke noises, and get the under-served quotable. I’m afraid, nothing’s quite like being there. (Unless you have video. But that’s quite a different issue.)
