Ryan,
You’re not late to the social at all. You’re still an early adopter!
I started a FriendFeed room as well for OSH talk.

Good point Gordon. I was just up in Oshkosh yesterday and I’d say they have a way to go. I’m going to nudge them though.

Just checked, apparently the EAA folks haven’t even got an @airventure account yet! @oshkosh is already taken by someone else.

Someone needs to tell them about Twitter!

Yeah, Twitter has a lot of untapped potential. I keep saying it’s like a new kind of phone service, and I mean it – i.e. Twitter could end up like another utility with many things built on top of it. If Obvious Corp. doesn’t get it done, someone will.

BTW, I think giving Twitter a push at Oskosh next month is a great idea! It could be SXSWi all over again, yet better!

SWSWi 2007 was Twitter’s coming out party for tech folks, & gave it a huge boost in users. I’d love to see the same thing happen with folks in the aerospace biz using Twitter. Actually, there’s already quite a few, I’ve collected over 700 so far at AeroTweets.

Yeah, you’re not the only one that got sucked in…

At first I only tried it out because I thought it might be important to know from a web professional standpoint. And then you start to follow a few people and you see what they can do with it… and then your stuck.
