Tweetup Newcastle

March 17th, 2009 by Alistair MacDonald Leave a reply »

Do you use Twitter? Do you live in or around Newcastle upon Tyne? Do you fancy meeting other people who have answered yes to the previous questions in a pub for a pint? If the answers are yes, yes, please read on.

I am wondering if we should have a Tweetup. This would be just like when you tweet that you fancy a pint a couple of friends on Twitter join you. The difference is we give a couple of weeks notice so people can plan and not just a couple of hours as per usual.

The idea is not mine. There have been several round the world, and one is being run tonight in Preston. The format seems to vary some what, but I am suggesting we don’t try anything complicated and just gather informally for a chat. Restricting your sentences to 140 characters is optional. ;-)

So what do you think? Please let us know by completing this criminally easy poll.

Update: So that is a good solid yes. In my experience not all the people voting here will make it, and people who were not interested would not vote. That being said others will come, and we do not need any more than two people for it to be successful. I will seek some venue and day feedback next month and we can give it a go.
