    Thanks for sharing these videos. Amazing to think what people have done with this tool called the "internet".

    Since our first Twestival was quite a success (In Cluj-Napoca, Romania), organizing Twestival Local is quite an obvious thing to do!

    I encourage and support local organizers, so if there is any help needed please let me know.

    I'll be available for and looking forward to hosting the Chicago Twestival again (http://www.twitter.com/mjcarter)

    Will be a great day for a great cause!

    But when the medium becomes the focus, rather than the people and the causes, something is f*ed up backwards.

    We were to proud to host one of the UK Twestival's here in Cornwall and can't wait to start work on the next one.

    Since completing the last event we've developed a network of Twitterers and other social media users and formed the south west's first Social Media Cafe. Using our new support I'm sure we can make the next events bigger and better than before - raising even more for the chosen charitable cause.

    Well done to Amanda for continuing to drive this forward.

    @trent_reznor raised MUCH more than $250,000 for #eric (Eric De La Cruz http://weloveeric.com/) using Twitter as well as other methods.

    As a local community foundation we are very interested in creating a MetroWest (MA) twestival program!

    Twitter is like a breath of fresh air on the Social Media scene. I have been on it for just a few weeks now and I have met several interesting people. It is a platform to network with people you would like to meet in real life.
