        @BoingBoing @doctorow I was amused that Techcrunch felt it necessary to illustrate a “booth babes bad” piece with multiple babe shots.

        .@BoingBoing @MidnightDBA Are those booth babes just for display, or can they interact with a customer with info abt the products?

        @BigMikeInAustin @BoingBoing I think the basic assumption of booth babes is they likely aren't SMEs. Interact, yes. Sales, maybe. SME, no.
