And of course if you are taking notes on your laptop how much does it effect the speaker if you twitter about what he/she is saying. For me it might enhance the presentation if I could chat with someone as it was going on. It's much less rude than talking to your neighbor during a presentation.

I do write notes as well - but it's much easier to blog a conference if I type up the notes as the speaker talks and edit it all later. Plus, a lot of people are live blogging the talk - so they kind of need their laptops out. As for the Twitter thing - I see what you're saying - but this is the age of multi-tasking :) And I can concentrate and type at the same time. As a speaker myself, I don't mind the laptops.

Twitter just seemed to make things worse. Am I the only person in the CIL/IL universe that thinks using your laptop during a presentation is rude to the presenter?
