Ogden Tweetup - Great First Meeting

Last Thursday was our first Ogden Tweetup.  What is a tweetup?  Well for those who are not on twitter, let me explain. A Tweetup is a meeting of twitter users that follow each other.  These are people you have not usually met in person, but only via twitter.  It is a great chance to network, connect and discuss the world.

A few weeks ago Mike Brice, aka @MikeBrice on twitter, contact me and asked if there ever had been an Ogden Tweetup.  I told them there was a few back in 2009 but nothing since.  He suggested we get one going.  Before we knew it we had an event planned and invited all our tweets.

Here is the group from the Tweetup

We met at Roosters on 25th Street and had a great time.  It was a great chance for all of us to meeting discuss the world of twitter, blogging and Ogden in general.  Though everyone at the meeting was very interesting, I wanted to spotlight a couple of the bloggers that were there.

• Indie Ogden - http://indieogden.blogspot.com/ This is a local blog about everything Ogden.  She focuses on local music, musicians and events.  But she blogs about everything in between. A fun blog to read.
• Jason and Jeffrey Dutcher - http://passionisthepurpose.com/ This is cool blog that spotlights local business, individuals and anyone who is passionate about something.  It is a cool blog and really brings out the passion in our community.

There were more people there and I will spotlight them at another time, but look out for the next tweetup and if you are not following me on twitter you can at BenJoeM2.  Thanks Mike for setting it up.
