Cheltenham Social Media Cafe
On Firday (9th July) we popped along to the Cheltenham Social Media Cafe, a great place to meet and chat with people about Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare, organic cider, cake and what ever else takes your fancy.
“Cheltenham Social Media Café is a regular, informal meet-up for everyone in the area with an interest in social media and online communications. – www.cheltsocialmediacafe.org.uk”
Jonathan Pollinger – Social Media expert (www.intranetfuture.com) did a brief introductory presentation about Foursquare. The presentation was an excellent way to find out more about Foursquare and how local businesses could benefit from this new social media network. After the presentation Jonathan gave us a spot on stage to talk about our aims and plans for Foursquarestival (find out more here).
After the presentation it was back to socialising (in the real world) with all who attended Cheltenham Social Media Café and we met some great new people (a few of them listed below).
Another great event, and long may they continue. BIG thanks to Chris and Rachel from Firehoop for organising Cheltenham Social Media Cafe and to Jonathan for simplifying the world of social media!
Here’s a few fellow tweeters we met:

Dammit, if only I wasn’t working in Kemble I would have been able to make it.
