  1. @dlnorman watched oscar calmly examine all the eye exam machinery this morning. freaky how quickly they age
  2. @gsiemens no. business conference attendees need not 'be entertained' in all conferences. In some this is required. depends.
  3. @gsiemens "Rather than getting into flow and becoming an entertainer"
  4. @gsiemens it's not your job to expect them, but to not choose them if your audience wants to be entertained (if corporate conference)
  5. @gsiemens second paragraph clearly makes it as a business conference.
  6. @gsiemens do you think this sounded like an academic conference?
  7. @gsiemens I think we simuposted those comments. we're like... bffs
  8. @gsiemens @courosa if its lecture. (as @celloday suggests) I wonder if that's the way it's advertised.
  9. @gsiemens @courosa i dunno. if it's entertainment, how are we different than comedians. Mean people suck... but there are alot of them
  10. @courosa bonnie is telling me that i'm conflating two meanings of the word mob
  11. @shareski wow. maybe i misread it. if it was behind her... and she didn't know about it... that seems strange.
  12. @courosa nah. there's a social contract with a mob. again... think of the pit mentality in old plays. they know its a play. want a good1
  13. @courosa @gsiemens here's the thing. she says "Had i known about the twitter stream" It's a 'web 2.0 expo'.
  14. @courosa they are disorderly. i keep thinking of the 'groundlings' of the globe theatre.
  15. @gsiemens my question is about that contract. If the mob is bound to be civil, what is the speaker bound to do?
  16. @gsiemens wasn't there an outcry recently regarding someone who did 'the worst presentation ever' along similar lines.
  17. @courosa @gsiemens it's one thing to make your work public as part of your work, it's something else to sell your work.
  18. @gsiemens @courosa it comes down, i guess, to what we are selling with those dollars. or buying. what's the social contract?
  19. What is the audience's responsibility to the entertainer? lets say I'm pay $600 bucks. (via @gsiemens)http://bit.ly/4OjgzE
  20. RT @kate_mckenna: the best classes are the ones where you get drunk
