St. Louis and Social Media
July 8, 2009 in Having Fun, Missouri, St. Louis | No comments
I’ve been pleasantly surprised to find that St. Louis is an active social media city. Check out these three upcoming events in the St. Louis Area:
On Thursday evening, a LinkedIn networking event will be held at Bar Louie’s in the Central West End from 5:30-8:30 p.m. The event is hosted by www.therisetothe top.com, and $5 will be charged at the door. This one looks like a substantial event, with 468 people on LinkedIn giving “yes” RSVPs and an another 222 showing interest in the event.
@RiaSharon has been promoting an #stl #tweetup this Friday at 5 pm at Schlafly Bottleworks in Maplewood. You can’t go wrong with Schlafly’s. This place is the real St. Louis brewery now that A-B isn’t locally owned. Schlafly’s has a large weekly farmers market, and even purchases some of its ingredients locally. If you order the Bison Nachos, your bison meat is actually coming from my area of small town, Missouri, from a ranch called Sayersbrook.
There’s another event on Friday that’s being marketed towards McCleur High School grads, as well as Twitter and Facebook friends of the organizer. I’m not sure how open or closed this event is to new people (St. Louis people can be funny about inviting new friends into their old-friend mix), but here’s the link in case you’re interested.
On Friday, July 3rd, @rex7 and @prebynski hosted “The World’s Largest Tweetup” at McGurk’s in Soulard. Here’s what @Tojosan had to say about the event.
