			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Those responsible for the larks of the <a title="Twestival" href="http://twestival.com">Twestival</a> Twitter meetup are at it once more. The first batch of tickets for <a title="Twestival London" href="http://london.twestival.com">Twestival London</a> were released this afternoon.</p>
<p>There are more coming later this week apparently. There was one major usability problem &#8211; so I grabbed the Flip to film <a title="@kaichanvong" href="http://twitter.com/kaichanvong">Kai</a> booking his ticket.</p>
<p>But hey, 350 twitterers have managed it thus far so maybe I&#8217;m just being picky.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the result. Kai says sorry for swearing:</p>

<blockquote><p>It was the <strong>best meetup event</strong> I&#8217;ve been to for a <em>long time</em>. If not the best night out for <em>ages</em>.</p></blockquote>
<p>The London Twitter crowd are a genuinely lovely mix of people. A vibrant mix of creatives, webby types, designers, bloggers, developers, musicians, podcasters, PR folk and everything inbetween. We talked about music, user experience, Twitter, iPhones, booze, photography, becoming a MySpace band. Everything.</p>
<p><img class="flickr-large alignright" longdesc="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3211/2889828036_a173f8a653_o.jpg" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3211/2889828036_f656624e6e.jpg" alt="Pink Dress" width="275" height="500" /></p>
<p>We met those we&#8217;ve followed for ages and got to put faces to usernames. I met friends of friends who I didn&#8217;t even know were on Twitter to start with. What more could you want from an event?</p>
<p>All in all it was a brilliant chance to catch up with old friends and acquaintanc</p>
<p>es, as well as a perfect chance to make new friendships and tap into the collective wisdom of our local Twitter scene.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re anticipating the next one. No pressure guys!</p>
