          Hell I stopped reading as soon as I saw "Web 2.0" in the title. That's all I need to see to know I'm going to be reading a puff piece that makes about as much logical sense as trying to program using a magic 8 ball.

                        Of course you did. There is recent scientific evidence suggesting that meetings are a cure for awakeness.
