Social Media in Real Life ~ Series 6 ~ Geekin’ It w @AdventureGirl
I got up nice and early for #TWTRCON to hear Laura Fitton (@Pistachio), founder of oneforty.com and author of Twitter For Dummies speak at the un-friendly hour of 7:30 am. It was well worth it. Laura had the crowd wide-eyed and was, I think surprised herself at her level of animation for that hour. Then from the back of the room was a loud “Laura, you rock” and then a blonde bobbing pony-tail rushing to the middle of the room to meet Laura for a big embrace. Ah…. @AdventureGirl. Stefanie is as big a personality in real life as she is online. I couldn’t help but go introduce myself and grab her for a little on camera time. As it turns out, she wasn’t even meant to be at the conference, but was staying at the same hotel. Thanks to Foursquare, she saw our check-ins and came to say hi!
Check out our chat about some of Stef’s travels, how she has always been a geek, and some of the fabulous charity campaigns she is involved with including her own personal 140smiles.org and more recently the global campaign to END MALARIA.
