Long Island Tweet Up

Posted by Wendy Weber

I attended my first Tweet Up last night. Held at a local mall, it was very well attended, and the crowd was welcoming.

It was an eclectic group, interested in “all things social”. I expected it to be an extremely youthful group…and was pleasantly surprised to see a mix of all ages. People were anxious to become acquainted, and introduce me around. And not because they needed jobs…truly in the spirit of sharing.

Since the event took place at 6pm, a nice aside was that the mall restaurants donated food, so there were lots of good things to eat! Soups, sandwiches, snacks and beverages.

Before the evening ended, I had received several new invites/follows on my social media accounts. I will certainly attend future events with this group!
