The other night my wife and I attended the Little Rock Tweetup, also known as #LRTweetup. We had a blast connecting with people that we talk to on a daily basis inside the social network Twitter. The #LRTweetup was organized several months ago and have had several meetups at various establishments around Little Rock. They have even helped raise awareness to some very good causes such as Reach out and Read Arkansas and most recently Meet me Halfway, which brought into town Country Music Performer Jimmy Wayne.
The Little Rock Tweetup group meets on a pretty frequent basis if for no other reason than to have a drink and unwind with friends after a busy day. The calendar can be found online for #LRTweetup if you are interested in attending, it’s a great networking opportunity. The venues for each Tweetup change from meeting to meeting and from what I can tell the business owners that host these events see an obvious economical impact from having an influx of people converge on their establishments.

Now, here is my question. Keith Crawford, one of the organizers of the event and one of my good friends asked me if I thought such a group would go over well in Conway. I told him that I wasn’t quite for sure if there was enough interest so I thought that I would put out this feeler post to see…
Would you be interested in being a part of the Conway, Arkansas Area Tweetup?
If so, please leave a comment below and let me know…
I'd love to have a Conway tweetup, as I've yet to make it to one of the LRTweetups (and I've been disappointed every time I haven't gone, after reading all the fun tweets). I just don't know what the demand for a tweetup would be in Conway.
And I love the name Toadsuck Tweetup!
I went to my first one the other night and it was a lot of fun. I don't know if there is enough interest in Conway for one of these or not either but told my LR friends I would give it a shot.
I would definitely be interested in something like this. One of my friends is always talking about going to the one in LR, but I usually don't like to drive into LR after work, so meeting in Conway would be great. 🙂
Awesome! I have had a few more people send me tweets that they were interested too.
I'd like to help out with the Conway Tweetup. I haven't heard of the Little Rock one. It'd be nice to meet more people who understand social media. Please send me an email at:
