Well, to the point of the rant, those SALES associates John mentioned are now all over Twitter answering complaints from people who don't want to navigate telephony trees and sit on hold.
Actually, they're more just protecting their brands. If you read that story about Kevin Smith getting pulled off Southwest for allegedly being too fat, you'll see the kind of ruckus an agrieved member of the Twitterati can cause. -----Original Message----- From: Don Ferguson <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 27, 2010 4:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Treo] buyer as beta tester` What's your theory, youngster? I'm 52 and showing no signs of slowing down on my willingness to jump into the pool of new technology, hoping it has water in it! Then again I do this for a living, so I might not be a typical sample. Now SOME new technologies still evade me a bit. Forex, I understand the value of Twitter in numerous circumstances (earthquakes come to mind today) but I can't for the life of me get all enthusiastic about tweeting about every little thing (or even big thing) I do! Going on vacation might be a good reason to update my status on Twitter, but then I leave myself open to people knowing that I'm out of town, and so getting my house burgled. Anyway, I absolutely LOVE new technology, for the capabilities it can give us that we didn't have before! Does that help?
