The OOXML fight is near and dear to my heart because, when it happened, I was a baby developer, and I cared about the issue for some reason I can barely recall, and I found an expert on the issue on Twitter. That guy would regularly tweet about everything that was going on and the problems with the spec and the shenanigans, and I was one of the, like, 20 people who was hanging on his every word. And sometimes he'd talk about bee keeping instead. It was my first introduction to Twitter at its best. You got these unfiltered whole views of the lives and concerns of real people who were, in part, experts at what you cared about. So sometimes you had to listen to them talk about other random stuff they thought was neat. And that's great! | ||||||||
