Are you coming to #Twestival or #LDNtwestival?

Posted by: Michał In: bits and bobs

Twestival

Tomorrow volunteers using Twitter in 175 cities around the globe will meet for what promises to be a truly amazing event, Twestival.

It’s a charity event which aims to raise money and awarenes for charity: water. I’m a bit disappointed no Polish city will take part, but then again Twitter-mania hasn’t reached Poland yet (plus there’s a more popular local equivalent of Twitter, called Blip.)

Anyway, it’s a great idea, the entire money raised through the sale of tickets and donations will go straight to charity: water and according to some estimates, Twestival is on course to collect a million pounds. Which would obviously be ace.

You can read more about Twestival – and donate – on its official website and if you’re coming to the London Twestival, do say hi, I’ll be there (or drop me a message on Twitter @thepolskiblog).

Way too far away to attend the London twestival, but thanks for the heads up. I was able to donate to the Toronto version. Good cause, and great idea! Thanks for this info.
