I sat, then stood, at the left hand side of the conference hall, my hand high in the air to indicate that I had a question for the speaker.

So why did the chair of the session ignore me? Was it because I was British and this was an American conference? Even when I managed to grab one of the roving microphones others spoke over me so that my voice couldn’t be heard.

I only wanted to ask about the bibliographic control of Twitter lists.
