April 15, 2007 At NTC , there was a lot of talk about the “big three&# open source CMS packages that most people these days in our sector are using: Drupal , Plone , and Joomla.

But why not add another channel to the back channel happenings, for instance, at NTC ? IRC has always seemed to me to be one of the best ways to do that, but IRC is, well, passé these days, it seems. Sounds like a reasonable idea. But why don’t I sign up for a Twitter account, and, well, Twitter? Be Helpful.
