Sarah sent me the format this morning.

"PRsarahevans morning! here is format: @nameofperson, #category; @nameofperson, #category"

Too confusing especially with category names like: #TWEEPLES TO WATCH (up and coming) and #TECHNOLOGY/ WEB 2.0

Voting would have to look something like:

@stevegarfield, #TWEEPLES TO WATCH (up and coming); @stevegarfield, #TECHNOLOGY/ WEB 2.0

Way too confusing with too many # , and ;

I suggested suspending the voting and redoing the voting page so all people need to do is enter twitter usernames under multiple categories.

Why don't these people get real and realise that this sort of stupidity alienates so many people

The name or the statement? The name is silly. But so is Twitter. And "tweet." I mean, what the heck is "Tweeple?" The Internet's feverish branding race has ruined great terminology. It's just sort of accepted. Unfortunately, I think a good portion of the non-techie world looks at this stuff and thinks we're insane.
