Tweetup is a craze where people meet up that are twitters. Twitter is what called a blog of 140 characters. The popularity of Twitter is fast becoming main stream and now has the focus of the main stream media where there is not a day go by that main stream media has not written,spoken or commented about Twitter.
Tweetup Australia is an initiative of @womencan and myself @ausi1 to create a national day where all Australians who are on Twitter have the opportunity to meet other Twitterverse.
How it works
Organise an event
Decide where the event will take place. A cafe or a park. If you decide on a park you could arrange a BYO Barbeque.
Keep it simple as some followers may not be cashed enough to do anything elaborate.
Inform your local media of the event as Twitter has now got there focus and will make a good story for them.

How Does One Become Friends On The Internet
David I will draw you a Fire Truck
While Studding internet communications I came across the story of the 7 legged spider David story influenced me when through a discussion forum for another subject I was doing I had a comment made by Mr P that me and another student Mrs M should get a room. Now this other student lives 3000klm away from me so if we where to get a room then a considerable investment would be required. The Victorian Bushfires was the hot topic of the time so I offered to draw him a fire truck for $3000.
This started some very hot negotiations on the sales of this drawing and weather the drawing was valued correctly. I told Mr. P if he was able to obtain a profit from the sale then he was more than welcome to any gains he made from the investment only to be told he does not like fire trucks but his son does. I thought what a great idea he can purchase the drawing and keep it for his son who likes fire trucks. Mr P informs me that he collect empty beer cans not drawings. I then felt sorry for him as I found this website describing Mr P living arrangements .
Its been some time now and I had drawn the fire truck for Mr P however to date the cheque has not arrives. I know this is not as good as David’s7 legged spider there must be an opportunity for some one to have and place it on coffee mugs and TEE Shirts and make a bloody fortune from it. The fool that did not buy the 7 legged spider from David on EBay for $15000 missed a great opportunity to franchise it
I now offer the same deal to the open market.
Drawing of the fire truck $3000
Firemen and extra $2000 each
Bargain
Anyhow the reality is that Mr P and Mrs M and myself are now all very good friends. But my room still awaits my sale.
