Make sure Twitter handles are on badges under name and affiliation, and
clearly demarcate each panel with it's own hashtag to go with the main
event hashtag so that you can follow the entire day(s) or just the panel.
Huge help. Also, it's possible to run Twitter streams in the main meeting
spaces but for #TtW13 we thought it'd be too much on presenters to see that
in their rooms.
