I came across some awesome meeting notes I took a few months ago. Here is what amounted to about three pages of what a colleague of mine coined, “paper.twitter.com”. Essentially you write short quips on the page, that roughly equate to the length of a tweet on twitter.com, written with the first posts at the top, and then continuing down the page, as you go. (And yes, I literally wrote the timestamps out on the page, in the beginning, they are here in this post, and then I stopped doing it because it was cumbersome. Ha ha.)
Fascinatingly enough, it actually turned in to a great writing exercise that brought up some interesting thoughts on the meeting I was in.

"The realization to the potential of an 'event'."
That's some words there.

When you have 10 different systems performing your main business
competency, the shit gets crazy fast.
I suggest the new name for our all-inclusive system be, "The thing, at
the place, with the guy, that does the magic stuff and what not."
Short and snappy.
This meeting should have a word bingo board that includes the words,
"The Intersect", "event", "platform", "innovate", "integrate", and
"consolidation". And if it was a drinking game, I'd so be hammered
right now.
I just found out I'm part of "Business Operations". Uhh, cool.
Is the Automation Team going to be called the A-Team?
I'll bring that up @ tomorrows meeting

And does that make the BSC the "B" team?
"Changes" sometimes means "Oh shit, watch out!".
I need a shirt that says, "Top Performer".
"...in bed."
"No longer with the company", sounds like, so morbid.

Three pages of posts, I'm awesome.
It seems figuring out how long something should take is way
more difficult that it should be.
