Very excited about Twestival and in awe of @amanda and the twestival team for co-ordinating it all. At the time of writing there are over 80 cities registered to hold Twestivals. I'm helping organise the Manchester Twestival @MancTwester (do you see what we did there?) and although it's scary given the frightening deadline, it also feels like a genuinely inspiring thing to be involved with and for an amazing cause. Everyone has been so keen to help, it's fantastic. Will be blogging our progress. You can follow us on Twitter @MancTwester.
Apologies for being a Twit, but wtf is a Twestival? Do we all go online and Tweet simultaneously?
Hmmm…as it’s you Sally I don’t know if this is tongue in cheek! No, it’s not online, it’s where Twitter folk get together in (shock, horror) REAL LIFE. Evening event, music, beer, some other stuff that, for Manchester event, we are still finalising. And all for great cause. As far as I’m aware this is the first type of global simultaneous event of its kind. Come along
