Calling all Central PA Twitterers, bloggers, and social media affectionados! Our next installment of the increasingly-popular blogHarrisburg Tweetup is happening Thursday, September 18th beginning at 7pm. As always, we’ll be in The Abbey Bar (upstairs at Appalachian Brewing Company). Come out and share a brew with your fellow Harrisburg bloggers and local Twitter users!
The tweetups are casual and open to any midstate resident who has a blog or a Twitter account. We meet on the third Thursday of every month — same place, same time. If the weather is decent (defined as “fall crisp” and not “winter cold”) and ABC hasn’t closed the deck for the season, we’ll be outside on the deck. If not, there’s plenty of room for everyone inside. blogHarrisburg.com and floor9.com will carry the final word a few days before the event.
Users of all skill levels are welcome and encouraged to attend! We’re a friendly and open bunch, and nobody should ever feel unwelcome because they’re not a master of their domain. No matter if you’ve just signed up for Twitter, or just finished hand-coding a new SQL server in pure machine code, or fall anywhere in-between, we want you to attend!
The blogHarrisburg tweetups are about 30% business and 70% social gathering. Most of the shop talk tends take place early in the night, so if you’re interested if comparing CMS engines, discussing advertising strategies, or any other topics related to social media and technology in general, arrive early. The tweetup officially begins at 7pm, and although it officially ends at 9pm, most people stick around and make a night of it.
One final word — while there is no age requirement (patrons under the age of 21 are permitted in ABC until 10pm), some of the topics we discuss may be boring and/or “too grown-up” for younger children.
Hope to see you there!
