Indy tweetup - huge success today

Was able to meet some twitter friends, who are excited about ways that God is using online social media to connect missions, churches, and those of us interested in both

One project that I've considered is finding as many online social missions personalities as I can
A number of 'tweeps' showed up today for a 'tweetup' -- don't ask. LOL. We heard 'names' like...
...and a girl named Tabby who has a dog named Bruce.
...and a guy named Bruce who has a cat named Tabby. Go figure.
We discussed how Twitter, Facebook and other social-networking sites can help missions and global awareness in general.... eg. the recent Mumbai story... being reported minute by minute among tweeters onsite at the hotels under seige.

Sorry that I had to miss the Tweetup. I am almost always there on Saturdays but had to stay home after a bad night. Having surgery Wednesday, so I'm playing it even more conservative when it comes to sleep and health/flu -fighting.

I am especially driven in the area of communications and definitely see the role that Web2.0 has in the Great Commission.

One more thing, I see that you are from Porter Co. area. My husband Steve Spencer is a 1979 Grad from Chesterton HS. We visit his family who still live in Chesterton throughout the year. Probably will come up Christmastime for a visit.

Sorry 2 have missed you this time; but I am sure I'll catch up.
Until then, stay warm with the Son!
