Maybe the real Twitter was the friends we made along the way.

@RubyConfMini With that, I'm exhausted, and overwhelmed, in a good way. Until next time, #RubyFriends <3.

@RubyConfMini Thanks to my wife, who tactfully asked, "you're sure you're doing this again?" only once when I told her I got accepted. It's not only the time this week to help with childcare, but all the time leading up to it she afforded me to prepare.

@RubyConfMini Thanks to anyone who scrolled through this whole thing, thinking, "surely Kevin will mention me next." You're handling it great! (Also, sorry?)

@RubyConfMini Thanks to @BrittJMartin for being as great a conversationalist in person as she is in an interview. I listened to Prequelle on the drive home (I don't have Absolution on my phone, and it didn't magically come on).

@RubyConfMini I'm so happy @RogersKonnor joined us. Thanks for fitting us into your week's plans, and making time to come along.

@RubyConfMini Thanks to my @BookBub colleagues who provided feedback on an early version of my talk, and covered for me at work so I could be here this week.

@RubyConfMini Thanks to @dmagliola, who couldn't be with us, for leaving a message in my inbox right around the time I wrapped up on stage, checking in on how it went. What a treat.

@RubyConfMini Thanks to @joelquen for unsurprisingly being the first person to approach me after I finished on stage. He was quick with a reassuring compliment and gave me feedback that'll stick with me for quite some time.

@RubyConfMini @DRBragg Thanks to the conference wifi, which actually WORKED that morning, allowing me to get my deck onto Drew's machine.

@RubyConfMini Thanks @DRBragg for unflinchingly handing me his laptop from the front row, letting me git clone the repo that has my slides on it. I ran the presentation from his computer, having never used it before.

@RubyConfMini Thank you to @confreaks and hotel A/V staff, who professionally and calmly worked to troubleshoot the issue, while I blankly stared at the audience, wondering if a scenario that's only lived in my head would come true - I'd give my full talk without any slides behind me.

@RubyConfMini For a single tweet of negativity, no thank you to the Ballroom projector. You worked great during the A/V check on Monday, and weren't there for me in my time of need. You disappointed me. Thank you for playing nicer with the rest of the speakers.

@RubyConfMini @JemmaIssroff After RailsConf, I told myself I was taking a break from speaking for a while. And then this opportunity came along, and it was too compelling to not TRY to be a part of. Thanks for the push.
