Last week the team and I attended the 3rd Silicon Valley Tweetup as a premier sponsor. For those of you who don’t know what a tweetup is, well…  Urban Dictionary does a good job describing it. Basically it’s a real-world meet up organized through Twitter.

The SV Tweetup group is a growing fast and the latest event, at the Cielo bar on the roof of Santana Row’s Valencia Hotel was packed on Weds with well over 100 bay area social media-ites.

This event drew an extra large crowd as author Brian Solis (from PR 2.0) was attending, signing copies of his newly published book ‘ Putting the Public back in Public Relations’. Barnes & Noble | Amazon

All the funds raised during the signing went to the Anissa Lopez Foundation  and the http://www.georgemark.org/www/index.htm  charities.

Congratulations also to Robin Lee, at Spherix Capital who won our Lithium prize draw for a new Sony Playstation 3 Slim. I’m sure he’ll have some fun with that!

It was a great night, we got to talk with a lot of people and ‘hi’ to all our new friends and followers on Twitter (@lithosphere). Thank you Michael Brito (@britopian) too, who’s brain child it was to organize the SV Tweetups.

And thanks to the Lithium team who had the task of socializing on the roof of a bay area hotel--Dan, Manjeera, Michael, Danny and Jeff!
