It is also weird to kiss your mom on the lips. Both are weird whatever gender you are and have nothing to do with being "gay" or "straight."<br /><br />Also, I do not agree at all that bisexuality is more "evolved" or "enlightened." No sexual preference is "better" than another, gay, straight, bisexual, or whatever. That's like saying it is better to like chocolate than to dislike it. Neither are good or bad, they just are. Your comment reminds me disturbingly of Christian fundamentalists who say that straight people are better than gay people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9401964.post-70387465183817036972011-11-24T14:41:27.066-08:002011-11-24T14:41:27.066-08:00Hey Matt,

Love collaboration. Love improv. A great thought starter.<br /><br />I think that creating this space is a very different use of twitter or live blogging than the usual reportage/ commentary that I usually participate in.<br /><br />What I was feeling <i>is</i>, that tweeting while someone is trying to talk to me is distracting - and that I find I get more out of what a presenter is saying if I concentrate on them.<br /><br />I'd like to think it's a little more respectful to the person who's trying to hold the room.<br /><br />I like the notion that being on stage encompasses a responsibility to change the world and conquer ego. I think that twitter can be seen as a stage too- and I wonder if tweeters could task themselves with the same standards when they condense all the power that is in the room to 140 characters.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15991260730734375402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9401964.post-82692777416297150412010-03-18T23:20:17.785-07:002010-03-18T23:20:17.785-07:00That's well argued, Matt.
