Recap: EdmontonTweetup3

edmontontweetup I had a great time tonight at EdmontonTweetup3 – our third meetup for Twitter users in the Edmonton area! We had just over 20 people come out to Devlin’s on Whyte Avenue, with a nice mixture of familiar and new faces! I thought the restaurant did a nice job of accommodating our group, and it was good to hear so many people say they’d never been there before. We might as well experience a bit more of the city at these events!

I only snapped a few simple shots tonight, but @bruceclarke, @tonyratcliffe, and @fusedlogic all took nice sets of photos: here and here and here. Thanks guys!

As our community continues to grow, I think there will be increasing demand for these face-to-face meetups. It’s nice to be able to get away from the computer for a few minutes to meet the people you chat with on a daily basis!

Once again I’ve done my best to add all of tonight’s attendees to the wiki page, but please add yourself if I missed you. Feel free to add links to your photos, blog posts, and other bits of social media too.

Thanks again to everyone who came out tonight – see you at EdmontonTweetup4!

    I did – thx! That camera of yours does a nice job, even with the flash.

    I had a great time at the Tweetup, as usual. I love these!

    I haven’t looked at the pictures yet. I’m afraid I’ll see mine in there! I’m usually the guy behind the camera.

    I agree, Devlin’s was a great choice. I’ll definitely be heading back there sometime.

    Unfortunately I couldn’t stay very long, so I didn’t get to meet / talk with many people. Hopefully next time!
