Two blocks of seats of bloggers and tweeters in the auditorium were putting out live titbits from the UKSG’s annual conference in Edinburgh last week (12-14 April)

Indeed Twitter was used by some in the audiennce and even those not actually there to pose questions to speakers and panels.

As someone who was ‘avoiding ‘ Twitter, I now have to rethink this. Within minutes my online eCommerce gallery for the 3 day conference going live, the URI was Tweeted by a delegate (thanks Tom Roper), then on Friendfeed and then on Tweetmeme (??). I only found this out as I subscribe to Google Alerts with various photography terms.
