Yesterday, I discovered that, social networking Twitvite commemorated it’s first birthday by publishing a list of it’s top users from 2009. Hawaii’s kama’aina have always been very social, which is why since Twitvite’s launch in January 2009, Hawaii has always been in the top five on the list of scheduled twitvites. However, I was amazed to find that of all the users around the world, five people from Hawaii are on Twitvite’s top fifteen list of people who RSVPāed to the most number of Tweetups.
Topping the list with 42 RSVPs is @LaurieCicotello, followed by yours truly with 37. Coming in seventh on the list with 33 RSVPs is fellow Cornbread @neenz. In the tenth slot with 28 is @funhiguy, and rounding out the list with 25 RSVPs is @tweetpea.
It’s funny that I found out about this list while on my way to a tweetup hosted by a local McDonald’s to launch it’s new McCafe and McSnack Wraps. There were several twitter based games and trivia for attendees to participate in, and I was lucky enough to leave with a McCafe cup. When I got home, I realized that I had amassed quite an impressive collection of cups from the various tweetups that I have attended this past year.
As impressive as this line up may be, this doesn’t even begin to reflect on the numerous bags, stickers, buttons, other miscellaneous pieces of swag that litter my room. My sister, in particular, has benefited from my attending of tweetups by staking claim of any t-shirts that I may bring home. It will be interesting to see how much my swag collection grows in 2010.
Song stuck in my head at the time of this post: The Burger King Jingle
