Check out the back page of the latest Washington Business Journal (above) for a social feature on a trend taking over the area: TweetUps! Twitter, the 140 character “status update” service started in 2006, but really took off with the general public last year.

Real twitter experimentalists understand that it’s not just about pushing out information, but about creating a conversation – and a community. And sometimes some real, physical interaction is necessary to keep the business of a personality booming.

TweetUps & TwineUps is just one of the many groups in the area that organizes impromptu gatherings of new media enthusiasts – so attendees can keep track of trending topics and tastemakers. Follow us on Twitter @kstreetkate.
