They’re filming #140conf for @dianebirch’s performance. So they filmed me tweeting on my iPhone and @lydialeavitt on her computer.
Next: @dianebirch performs, then talks, the Twitter maintenance.
Oh, I’m sitting in front of the camera, so no getting up for a bit. #140conf
Trying out tweeting sideways via Tweetie as a way to make my thumbs feel better during #140conf. We’re about to start again.
On now at #140conf: Mad Men Twitter. Surprise gust is probably an actor or producer of the show.
Oh and the surprise guest for the Mad Men Twitter panel (@frankadman) at #140conf had some “twittertinis” for the audience.
Looks like the camera is mobile now. @dianebirch is moving on to her second song. #140conf
Listening to @dianebirch at #140conf.
Celebrity panel at #140con just ended. Two panels left. Not sure if I want to go to the party after - I do have to catch the train.
Great panel at #140conf on celebrity: @ijustine @juliaroy @chrisbrogan @adventuregirl
Skipping the #140Conf party as I havv to go back to Long Island. Commute = sigh.
Twestival global: Feb 4, 2010. Twestival local: Sept 12 (I think), 2009. Exciting opportunity for charities! #140conf
And my #140conf day is complete now that we’ve got the obligatory dirty joke courtesy of @ajkeen.
Things that tweet by Kevin Slavin at #140conf. Funny devices, great ideas.
.@PRsarahevans has great coverage of #140conf by the way.
Tissot sponsors Danica Patrick on Twitter. -@kathleenhessert. Interesting. I’ve got a T-Touch (that’s why I find it interesting). #140conf
Slowing down on the tweeting from #140conf as my thumbs hurt from typing on my phone.
Citizen news could let journalists be journalists again and let them tell stories instead of reciting the news -@imajes #140conf
Access to news without overwhelming. Creating a connection to news. -@imajes #140conf
The concept of an archived Twitter that my (currently nonexistant) kids could one day read to learn about me is a bit freaky. #140conf
The secret’s out: @jeffpulver likes Facebook pokes. #140conf (via @davekerpen) Hahaha.
Is it just me or has the #140conf crowd thinned out a bit after lunch? Maybe it’s because I’m not sitting in front of the door.
I am glad that @moeed is using Keynote, but can we have a tech check for tomorow?
How great was Ann Curry? [x ]awesome [ ]average [ ]prettyface [x ]awesome #140conf (please RT and X your choice) (via @stoweboyd)
Now at #140conf: @moeed on Al Jazeera’s twitter strategy.
Journalists must remember that twitter is a unique audience and not representative of mass audience. -@moeed #140conf
.@1000timesyes is quite engaging and humorous as he recaps the history of music reviews on the Internet #140conf
So @1000timesyes begins by saying that his job as a music writer will be gone by next year. A bit depressing, yet also funny. #140conf
CMO Kodak @jeffreyhayzlett: we’re naming a chief listening officer to hear complaints and build community. #140conf
A world without critics is a world without because -@1000timesyes #140conf (also room for good writing).
Now: CMO Kodak @jeffreyhayzlett: they’ve completely revamped kodak and want to hear negative and positive - not nothing. #140conf
.@1000timesyes: crowds have terrible taste. It’s not the music that’s the best, it’s the music the most people can stand #140conf
And @1000timesyes begins encouraging digital piracy for music (jokingly) as he explains how albumns leak and spoil reviews. #140conf
Twanker: someone who practices bad Twitter form. Created from @jeffreyhayzlett’s presentation at #140conf

There is a tsunami in the web an it’s Google. But it also destroys brand relationships as it is transactional. -johnabyrne #140conf
Now @imajes is speaking about @cnnbrk. #140conf
Another #spellcheckfail for me today. Could be because of little sleep plus food coma.
