On 12th February 2009, there is a worldwide “Tweetup” to raise money and awareness for charity: water.

Twestival is organised by volunteers around the globe to raise moneyy for charity:water, over 100 cities worldwide will be hosting an event, from London to San Francisco.

The Tweetathon will happen over a 24 hour period and will bring tweeters from around the world together. Twestival began over a year ago in a one-off event in London but the power of Twitter enabled the main 40 cities to organise their events in less than 24 hours.

This should be one hell of a tweetup -I might be at the London or Manchester event so maybe see you there!
