Getting excited about Twestival Amsterdam


Haven't had much time to blog these days as I'm busy busy busy helping to organize Twestival Amsterdam a charity event which is raising money for charity:water so it's for a fantastic cause and a very interesting event.

Just over a week ago a group of Amsterdam Twitterers including me, met for the first time to organize the Amsterdam Twestival - now we're one of over 100 cities across the globe taking part in "the world's first global (offline) social networking event".

After just over a week it's been an amazing response and we're really starting to get traction as we're tapping into networks, motivating key influencers to get involved and spread the word...it's a fantastic case study for the groundswell effect of social media and I'm really excited to see how many followers we will have on the big day - February 12th.

So here's to Twestival and I leave you with some interesting social network analysis on Twitter.
