While in the commercial world discussions continue as to how the owners of Twitter
might best get income from their free microblogging service, back in February this
year the first Global Twestival – a real-world fundraising festival organised largely
through Twitter – raised some $250,000 for charity:water.

 

Building on this success, a second international Twestival is taking place next 
month – from 10th through 13th September. But this time, rather than all events 
around the world focusing on a single charity, groups of volunteers have voted for
the charity they would like their local city’s event to raise money for.
