Twestival, real world meets virtual one

twestival
Do you know Twestival? Twestival™ (or Twitter Festival) uses social media for social good. It's a great example of a physical extension to an online event, in this case to support a charitable cause.... We've all heard of or attended virtual events like concerts (U2 in Second ife anybody?) or political or social events. It's a unique way to share an experience.



Twestival brings this concept one step further by letting people around the world organize local physical events to raise funds and create awareness for a good cause. In 2009 it was @charitywater and this year's events are supporting education. Visit their site or follow @twestival to see how you can contribute between 2 virtual events!
