twestivaldc2009-1The Twestival Celebration at MidTown Loft was a huge success. On September 10, tweeple in DC and in cities around the world got together to support local causes.

Proceeds from the DC Twestival went to Miriam’s Kitchen– an organization that feeds the homeless. Altogether, we raised enough money for 10,000 meals– that’s a fifth of the meals they serve a year.

The event was also chance to see people I normally only get to talk to on Twitter. Here are just a few of the tweeple I met up with (in alphabetical order. I’m not playin’ favorites here!):
