WHO: everyone, even people not on Twitter is welcome!
WHAT: It's really just a FREE BYOW (bring your own wallet) happy hour so Austinites can get the hell off of the computer and go meet each other!
WHEN: February 11th from 6:00pm until whenever you want to go home!
WHERE: The Gingerman (see map below)
Never been to a tweetup?
Neither have a LOT of people who are coming! Don't be shy, you can talk to as many or as few people as you want to. Here are 10 simple rules to going to a Tweetup written by @omarg of the Statesman and here is a Geek's Guide to Being Interesting.
This is pure, informal fun, so bring a friend or a date and have a beer- let's mingle! Sign in is in the back room at Ginger Man so come sign in and get a nametag (or we will mock you for sure)! :)
Due to serious, near-death experiences recently, we haven't thrown a tweetup since November, but click here to see who went, how it went down and what to expect this month!
