Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Interesting article about backchannel activity during talks

Well, do we plan to have a twitter back channel? I think that is a terrible idea ... Presenting is already a strenuous activity, can't imagine how awful it is to have people talking behind your back when you're on stage. Terrible idea. There is plenty of opportunity in the hall ways to provide feedback to speakers. I really would hate if the mentally twelve year old get such a powerful weapon. And such people are in any group, read the post you've given.

If we have twitter walls, it might be an idea to show their full name, email, and picture(s) from Facebook
next to their posts ...

Might be an idea to provide a twitiquette to attendants?

Kind regards,

Not that the Eclipse crowd would display this kind of behaviour...
but an interesting article all the same.
