True I would not want to constantly monitor the wiki, but I guess that in the end I’m not all that worried about it. I mean my twitter profile is public anyhow, so where it ends up on the internets I cannot control. If someone thinks it’s funny to put a link to me in the “these guys are jerks” topic list or whatever, so be it. (But yes I would remove myself from that list if I happened to notice it LOL.)

I will get around to the Ottawa pack soon, I promise!

That said, I do think Chris’s idea about trying to give people new to the Twitter experience a good place to figure out who to start listening to in order to hear the conversation – it’s off to a rocky start implementation-wise.

I’m still hoping that it evolves into something really positive instead of something negative.

But I would disagree with you about the “if you don’t like it, fix it” – honestly? I don’t have the time to monitor the constant changes to that wiki to see if someone has or hasn’t added me to a given group, or has removed me from one I do want to be on… do you?

Clearly, I don’t think the wiki was the right format for that – but I don’t have a viable alternative to offer, unfortunately. I suppose, at some point, if Twitter incorporates groups, we’ll all have the ability to control our own involvement in those – without the worry that someone else might add or remove us without our consent.

And hey… take your own advice and add that Ottawa entry!
