This month just a laid back get to know everyone in the group and start planning future events for the upcoming year event. Have a great idea? Have a topic your are dying to learn about? Lets chat and make this meetup for you and what you are looking to get out of it!

Otherwise known as a Tweetup! We are combining our event this month with the Hampton Roads Internet Marketing and Technology Meetup (a private group, you can RSVP where ever you like, including twtvite, which will tweet you a handy reminder the day before the event!)

We are having at Gordon Biersch in town center who will be providing free appetizers and free wifi! Thanks @GBVABeach for hosting this months meetup!

Why should you attend Hampton Roads largest tweetup?

1. Learn new twitter strategies
2. Meet your tweeps in person and get to know the person behind the avatar
3. Not on twitter yet? That's ok! You can still join un and get in on "what is everyone doing?" and "what do I tweet about?
4. Connect with like minded techie folks who share similar interests
5. Why not? It is the end of the month and time to relax with friends and a cold one at Gordon Biersch's.

So let's connect IRL ( in real life) and take our twitter, facebook and other social media relationships to the next level. By the way, a tweetup is just a bunch of people getting together to hang out & connect with each other. Think of a networking event without the speakers or formal parts, just the fun & talking.

We are using #hrva and #tweetup for our hashtags for this event!

Trying a new thing: a food court! You can get whatever you like at a food court. There's lots of parking, it's relatively easy to find, and of course if you get bored there's other stuff to do.

There may or may not be WiFi. If you're interested in netbooks, I'll be bringing a new Asus EeePC 900A with the atom processor.

This is at 12:15 am Saturday, meaning 16 minutes after 11:59pm Friday.

You should come because this place is pretty neat this late, brimming with activity, conversations, and good times. You may want to bring a few business cards with your Twitter or blog or something URL on it in case you meet someone you would like to get in touch with later. This may have the awesome side effect of expanding the Twitter effect on the peninsula!

Feel free to invite your nite owl friends. This may become regular, or may get moved to after midnight Saturday if this isn't as good a time for others (not this meetup, but future events of the same type).

There's no WiFi, so don't bring your laptop if you can't use a bluetooth phone as a modem or have one of those USB or PCMCIA aircard thingies. There's some wifi nearby, one's locked and two are iffy. If you've got a great wifi antenna, then maybe you'll be in luck.

P.S. If you would like to list your business which uses Twitter on http://twithr.com, or would like to be listed as an HR twit, or would like to put your Twitter utilizing local group (like 757.rb, @metaskills) on there, send an @reply to @twitHR.
