Excellent!. I think Twitter is a good social media tool. Sadly we ran out of time in Mexico for this discussion. But to gain the full advantage of Twitter we should really decide how we want to use Social Media then sync everything together, ie Blog, WikiSPace, FaceBook etc so it is all updated and people who do not use Twitter can still get an RSS feed or see updates on FaceBook etc. I have seen many Twitter strategies fail from lack of initial planning then those people say Twitter is a waste of time. A lot of people in ICANN use Twitter during the ICANN meetings and use the #ICANN tag as an easy way to find each other and participate. In Mexico i used #APRALO. But I have subscribed to the APRALO Twibe and my personal/professional Twitter name is @ktaiuru and comp @netmanianz if anyone else uses Twitter.

Nick et.al. we should play with this a bit then experiment for it's use as a tool in Sydney... When ExCom has had a look over the concept we can discuss it at the meeting later this week (was that confirmed for the 14th?)
I'll speak to this more at our next meeting(s) if you like...
