Have You Ever Wondered: What is a “TweetUp” ?
ByHave you ever wondered what a TweetUp is? Well simply put, it’s just a way for people to gather together for a social event, by inviting them via Twitter! WIth Social Media, it’s very easy to get the word out about your event or function (or just a group of friends getting together)
Remember being invited to a party with Evite.com? It’s a free program by Yahoo that let’s you throw a party and invite your friends via email. Well with Social Media we have TwtVite.com . It’s similar to Evite.com but it’s much easier to spread the word about your event with Social Media. You can use both Twitter and Facebook to tell folks about your event.
Here is a short video by the developer of Twtvite by Felipe Coimbra (@twtvite on Twitter)

Sounds like this is used mostly to bring people together physically (although, I guess you might be able to use it for a webinar, or something like that, I don’t know). So, it seems for the most part useful to our connections in restricted geographic area.
Joseph,
I have only seen it used for a physical gathering, but I bet that you COULD use it for a virtual gathering too.
That’s a great idea!
How Cool! I look forward to holding a Tweet-up around the Accelerator for Success Dream Bar Cafe principles. Let me go sign up.
Bill,
Yes, twtvite.com is free, all you need is a twitter account to sign up. (you may be able to use it without twitter and just use it with Facebook. Not sure)
I do not have a web site.

In my opinion, if it works, it works. It may not pull n the masses, but it could be the one tool that helps some marketers just at the right time. And the vary point that it’s free, so there should only be thanks that there is another method to reach people.
