Along with three other people, I help organize the monthly Philly Tweetup, a gathering of people from all walks of life that use the microblogging service Twitter. The Tweetup is a way for people who know each other only online to meet in person in a safe and fun environment.
Each month the Tweetup meets in Center City, Philadelphia at a local bar.
