KPBS (@kpbsnews) is graciously hosting our next SDTweetup for a new media/twitter networking and social event (aka Twitter party). We're going to take over their studios like the rock stars we are. There will be food, drinks (of the alcohol variety), a green screen photo area, Wii setup, and of course the return of the TwitterBoard (thanks to @gebl). There are still a few surprises left to come, so stay tuned! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone and making new media news.

IMPORTANT VENUE INFORMATION
Parking: KPBS has reserved no fee parking for us in Parking Structure 2. Make sure to park in Parking Structure 2 on levels 2, 3, or 4. If you park anywhere else on campus you'll have to pay for parking. There is a PDF available in the Files section of our meetup group titled "KPBS Directions" please reference this document for information on parking and directions.

Building Entrance: Please use the main entrance on Campanile Dr. The Lobby Exterior doors will be unlocked from 7 PM until 9 PM and someone will be stationed at the front desk throughout this period. The Ext Lobby doors lock at 9 PM, and guests will be able to leave freely, but be unable to re-enter the building.

I believe the "Tweetup" has outgrown it's title and should thus be dubbed "Tweetcon"; 200+ people? That's just nutty. Good job Van Grove for kicking this thing off and keeping it going. See you kids tonight @ 7:30 or so.

I see some folks I follow on twitter (BradSeraphin) -- some facebook friends too. This line should rhyme, but I'm tired as crap. I'll be looking for anyone to talk to about iList and drinking buddies to keep me from talking about iList.
