Hitchin Tweet Up Review

Last night (23/11/10) I held the first ever Hitchin Tweet Up as a way of bringing local people who use Twitter together to meet in the flesh. I must admit, I spent most of yesterday worrying that it was going to be a complete disaster with no-one turning up! However, I am extremely happy to report that all my worrying was unwarranted.

We had a total of 17 people attend which was a fantastic turn out for the first one.There were a few unforeseen oversights on my part, including picking the same night as the pub quiz and being in a 3G black hole, but if anything these provided comical entertainment rather than caused any actual problems.

Conversation last night was wonderfully varied and it was

great that several people who were not yet on Twitter but thinking about it came

along too.  I would like to say thank you

to everyone who attended for making it such a good night. 

Many people were asking when the next Hitchin Tweet Up would

be.  I had originally thought of

arranging them quarterly, but due to popular demand I have decided to

bring the next one forward to Wednesday 19th January. The venue will

be different.  I am going to be speaking

with some of the pubs in Hitchin over the next week or so to see who would be

happy to give us a designated area.  So

if anyone can suggest a good pub to hold the next one in please let me

know. 

The next Tweet Up will have slightly more format to it –

details to follow shortly.  Just as

before please register your interest on the new TweetVite. 

I would be really interested in hearing any feedback you

might have about last night, so please feel free to comment below.
