And Self Important. I think most of the reason Twitter gets so much face time on the blogs is because people using it want to believe they're on the ground floor of some kind of revolution. So it becomes a self-referential cycle of pumping yourself up by making Twitter into a cause you're a part of.

The real relevance of the "retweet controversy" is that the changes were a no-brainer (if people can edit a retweet they can claim the original tweeter said something s/he didn't). The uproar was really just that the users felt they should be consulted before anything is changed.
