>>>>I understand what you're saying, but this is a forum for professional developers, isn't it? There have been several cases where Jay and I participated in a technical thread while he used a twit filter on me, and that caused a lot of inference (misunderstanding) in that thread. Would you at least agree that a twit is not appropriate in the technical section?

It's funny you asked that. I came across some messages and blogs yesterday refer to 'Twitter' and 'twittee' yesterday which somewhat changed the meaning of the term, or rather added a new meaning. In a couple of them the author had to differentiate which meaning he was referring to i.e. 'not a twittee filtered by a twit filter in an online forum.' :o) I do wonder when the twitter network was first setup what they had in mind :o)
