Last night, I headed over to Sanfratellos Pizza in Geneva, IL for the Chicagoland Tweetup. I was late getting there, as I was wrestling with a videophone installation with routers that wouldn’t behave.
A nice, small group was just what I needed. I was fortunate to have Katie, a recent interpreter graduate who needed interpreting hours and she interpreted for me. (Thanks, Katie!). It was nice chatting with everyone and getting to know some of them better.
Here’s who was there: Wendy Piersall from Sparkplugging, Brad Shorr from Word Sell, Inc., Barbara Rozgonyi from Wired PR Works, Jeff O’Hara from Edmodo, Derek Semmler from DerekSemmler.com (who, by the way, really is a guy!), Carolyn Shelby from CShel, and Kim, and Jerome Hughes, Jim Goodrich and two others one other I can’t remember.
It was nice chatting about blogs, marketing and social media woes (time, who has time to keep up with it all?) and of course, the topic of the evening–Twitter. The pizza was fantastic– great choice, Wendy!
Here’s the link to the rest of the photos taken:
