The Philly Tweetup official started in March 2009 at the Fox and Hound in Philadelphia. Ever since the attendance at our monthly gatherings has grown exponentially.

Using the hashtags #tup and #phillytweetup, Twitter users in the Philadelphia area communicate amongst themselves about the time and place of where the next tweetup will be.

For those who are wondering what a tweetup is, it’s a meetup of Twitter users at a location to meet in person and socialize. Essentially it’s putting the “Social in Social Media.” (@waltpsu for that saying).

The Philly Tweetup is organized monthly by Seth Goldstein (@sethgoldstein), Neal Wiser (@nealwiser), Walt Breuninger (@waltpsu), and Jennifer Cohen (@jenz036).

The Philly Tweetup is free of charge and open to everyone, regardless if they are on Twitter or just interested in Social Media as a whole. Follow us on Twitter @phillytweetup.
