Welcome to TweetCamp Richmond!
The Tweetcamp will be happening on the 27th June.
Follow @tweetcamp for the latest conversations and join the discussion by commenting on the blog.
What is a TweetCamp? An informal unconference style event, run over a day hours, of non-stop engagement, interaction, and fun!
Following on the success from #twestival and #twinterval, and meeting people, and missing friends, and fellow twitterers - it feels like we need to have more time to catch up with folks, and drift in and out of conversations..
Before you come spend a lot of time, see what you like about it and how it can be part of a lifestyle rather than a work tool. The more conversations you will have had on Twitter the more fun it will be to finally meet these people in person.
What could we use a TweetCamp for? Suggest topics, themes, ideas or activities that we could do during the TweetCamp
Tweetcamp is happening! The first round of tickets were sold in less than two hours!
The event will be taking place at Gumtree's offices in Richmond. Some of you may remember going there for BarCampLondon 5:
