Kauai TweetUp June 8 at 22 Degrees North

Kauai TweetUps are intended to foster increased activity on Twitter, Facebook Pages, websites, YouTube and other social media in a way that benefits local businesses and the general economy on Kauai. Bringing our aloha spirit to the internet makes sense. We have avoided billboards on Kauai. That is a wonderful thing. Social media used properly, is gentle and sweet, like the breeze on Kauai.

Several of our participants have requested an evening #KauaiTweetUp and Todd Oldham at the wonderful 22 Degrees North has graciously agreed to support that.

Who Should Come:
You are responsible for or represented by a twitter account. It is your own or your company’s.
You are about to get on Twitter and would love some friendly faces when you get there.
You are friendly and nice – you don’t throw food.

What To Expect:
A tweetup is an opportunity for people who tweet and may know each from Twitter to meet each other face-to-face.
There will be ample opportunity to get to know each other and exchange information about social media, twitter and marketing our Kauai businesses. Everyone is an expert at something. Don’t be shy! Bring business cards.

How to RSVP:
Ideally, please leave me a comment on this page. If you are not accustomed to commenting, Here’s how to comment on a website.
Tweet that you are coming. If your Twitter bio doesn’t include your name (tsk tsk) please let us know who you are.

Following:
You should notice new Twitter followers during the week running up to the #KauaiTweetUp and following it. Be nice and follow back – unless you don’t want to – but at least consider it. I’ve noticed a lot of Twitter accounts on Kauai where the owner follows only a few people. Are you being selective or just not looking? Following back prospective or current clients just makes sense.
