Per Urban Dictionary: Tweetup: A gathering of nerds attempting social contact…. Usually disintegrates into everyone running to the nearest computer to type to one another.
Hmmm….not a half bad definition. As a change of pace, SMBMSP (Social Media Breakfast Minneapolis St. Paul) did not meet on Friday from 8 – 10 am, but rather Thursday, January 28, from 6 – 9 pm at CoCo (coworking & collaborative space) in St. Paul. This change of format turned the entire event into one big networking nirvana; photographic proof is offered below:

A good time was had by all! Mykl and Rick are getting a ton of requests to do this again — Gasp: Social Media Breakfast in the evening — what a concept!

Hey Kay,
Thanks for your awesome photos! I love the one of Sarah and I. :) I agree, I think Mykl and Rick should consider a monthly tweetup in the evening. It would be great for my schedule as a student.
Great pics! I would prefer tweetups in the “happy hour”
