I worked for a very large insurance company until recently . IT is run like the Wild West. Contractors seem to do whatever they want.  after a merger several years ago, all the people who built the systems were driven out, leaving a bunch of low paid outsourced contractors to support everything. The entire IT infrastructure is a bad day from collapsing.

Tweetdeck was the only thing keeping me on twitter. I kept it in a pinned tab so I could check the news and stuff. I was already trying to get away from it, that is the push I needed.
