Looking back over the last 18 months there have been so many loyal followers of the tuesdaytweetup from @neicey who turned up to the first and was at the last to @epredator who also has been to many of the tuesdaytweetups - its great that @ozonevibe has taken the lead in organising the event.

If you are new or have been on Twitter for a long time take a look at some of the previous posts in this blog - find out more about the tuesday tweetup - and keep following the social experiment of the south.

Tuesday Tweetup - Monday 22nd February

What a great night! The first tweetup of the year was a super success thanks to @icicle_halo_ and all her hard work. Great to see lots of the regular tweetupers and meet new ones too. The next one has been pencilled in for 13th April at the same venue!

5th Tuesdaytweetup A Success

Last night witnessed the last of the tuesdaytweetups (in 2009) at Dockgate 4 in Southampton.

It was a great success with attendees coming from as far a field as Basingstoke (@fleshplastic), Reading (@thesourceress), Andover (@clarebeckingham) and across the Southampton area. Most people arrived early to benefit fully from the half price drinks.. stock pilling bottles to last the night (@neicey).

@Mikeypalmer missed the last tweetup due to a photoshoot in Canada but he took over from @tpphotography and was the official photographer for the night. He also arrived with a new tuesdaytweetuper @fresh_therapies who you must follow if you need to relieve all the stresses and stains of life (massage) or experience one of the best beauty sessions along the south coast.

The 5th tweetup also witnessed the return of @catstormont, she's still to pass her driving test but she was in full swing raising money for the brownies and I think the majority of the tweeters walked away with one of their receipe books. Others raising money for charity (I'm not sure how proactive they were at the tweetup in asking us to dig deep for charity) were @iboov and @adammanning and I'll take a long shot at @pseudonymuk they were all sporting moustaches for #movember; follow them to link to their just giving pages and dig deep.

You can find photos of the tuesdaytweetup on @mikeypalmers blog site
http://bit.ly/dCV9E and I'm hoping he'll upload them to the DG4 Tuesday Tweetup Flickr Group http://www.flickr.com/groups/1047915@N21/ soon - keep your eyes peeled.

The event was a great success but dont take my word for it check out @adammannings blog update http://fbgfareham.blogspot.com/ and find out more!

Queen Liz - Invites You To The Tweetup

Have you spotted this on Youtube - Created by @iboov to help promote the tuesdaytweetup.

Want to know who's been and whos coming to the tweetup?

There are three really easy ways to find out who's coming to the tweetup on the 17th November.

The most comprehensive list is the list that Tuesdaytweetup maintains as and when people tweet they will be there - here is the link .

The other place is on facebook (I know, I know twitter is the future)~. There's an event page where you can invite all your twitter and non twitter friends (I'm sure they will eventually convert to twitter). Go on take a look and invite your friends - the more places the tweetup is promoted the more people will turn up and the better the night will be!

The third and maybe the easiest place is to tweet lots on twitter and ask your followers.. if they say they'll be there then let @tuesdaytweetup know and the twitter list will be updated.

The 17th November will be the last tuesdaytweetup of the year - it's been a great social experiment, lots of people have attended the events and here's the list -if you've been to a tweetup and aren't listed then again let @tuesdaytweetup know and you'll be added.

See you all at the last tweetup of the year, remember twitter is just the ice breaker - the tweetup is the opportunity to meet up and have fun.

Tuesday Tweetup Lists

Oh no not something else to get my small little brain around, first there was tweeter, then there was tweetups and now there are twitter lists.

I'm not convinced, but thought maybe I should keep a list of everyone that's ever been to a tweetup "I've been to a tweetup". Then I thought it would be good to keep a list of everyone that has said they are going to come to the last tuesdaytweetup of 2009 - "17th Nov". Please let me know if you've been to a tweetup and are not on the first list and if you're coming to the last tweetup of 2009 and you are not on the second list.

I've also spotted that i'm on 11 lists - most of them are local, southampton related however @tuesdaytweetup is also listed on "nice people that RT". thanks to @SSJCharity for the listing.

The jury is out for me on the whole list thing but I'll give it a go and remember Twitter is the icebreaker, Tweetup is the real face to face thing. Put 17th November 6:30pm in your diary and lets meet at the Tuesdaytweetup downstairs at Dockgate 4, Southampton.
