SmartOS on Twitter

There are many places out here on the Interwebs to talk about SmartOS, and one of the most active is Twitter. Most of the technical folks at Joyent are active (some very active) on Twitter, as well as many other members of the SmartOS and illumos communities. Here’s a sampling of recent Tweets (including a piece of good news for Nagios users):
