Sure, but it was a springboard into an mostly unrelated rant. :)

So what's to be done about the real problems? I'm a bit tired of crap like Twitter being big things, and would like to see actual significant stuff being done.

Sorry, but GIS is not it. Second Life is not it. Google Earth is not it. Maps are not it. Representations of anything are not it. It has to be real data to be as flexible as real things.

How do we move to the point of understanding, as a group, the challenge to be tackled? If you're writing something that goes into a web browser, that's not it either.

Steve. :)
