Third nfptweetup held in London
Howard Lake | 1 June 2009 | Blogs
The third nfptweetup, or meeting of charity/voluntary sector staff, agencies and others interested in how Twitter can be used by charities, took place on Wednesday last week.
I was unable to make it, but still managed to take part in the early stages using Twitter (of course) and by viewing a live broadcast of the event.
The event got underway with an introduction from Rachel Beer of Beautiful World, who displayed a collaborative slideshow from participants and other contributors:
