    Hi DJ!
    You have an aggressive travel schedule. Can't wait to see you in Seattle. A small yoga class awaits you -- let's catch some healthy food afterwards if you can spare the time. I have two questions for you, as a progressive thinker. What exactly is a "twitter", and who started twitters and tweets (what's the dif?)? And, what do you think is wrong with people boycotting the visit of the Dalai Lama because his message of compassion is not oriented in Christian thought? There have been some nasty posts by Christians in Seattle, who oppose the visit of the Dalai Lama, but they sound pretty angry, frightened, and somewhat misinformed to me.

    DJ,
    It was great to meet up with you at Q and make a few connections! Thanks again for your twittering...hoping to hear about the multisite coming up the same way!

    Imei,

    I've been describing Twitter as text-message blogging. You can try it out at www.twitter.com -- tweets are the noun. twitter or twittering is the verb. I've found it most useful at conferences to meetup with other twittering people, or for conference note-taking, and sharing them in real-time with the public.

    Got it twitters and tweets. Just didn't understand why some people were referring to it on Facebook at times...

    See ya soon!

    DJ - it was great to meet you at Q! I can relate to hitting "the wall" of exhaustion. I was feeling it Friday afternoon on the flight back to Nashville. After absorbing so much great content, my mind was full. Hope to connect with you soon at another conference. If you are ever in Nashville, give me a shout!

    Some hotels will keep your luggage for you behind the front desk after you check out. I have done it. Perhaps you can too. Of course you have to trust the staff.
