Audience listens as Chappaqua social media expert Chris Dessi speaks at 1st Westchester TweetUp at Pour Cafe and Wine Bar.

The 1st Westchester TweetUp was held last night at POUR Cafe and Wine Bar in Mount Kisco, and by all accounts the event was a smashing success. The nearly 50 attendees, many of whom knew each other only through the online microblogging service Twitter, had the chance to meet and greet while sipping fine wine and sampling mouth-watering appetizers prepared by POUR, and delicious cupcakes provided by Everything LuLu Cake Boutique.

Attendees also had the opportunity to hear Chappaqua’s Chris Dessi speak about how individuals and organizations can use numerous forms of free social media tools to engage in dialog with others. Dessi works as Director of Sales for Buddy Media in NYC, and the list of accounts he manges includes large national corporations and professional sports teams, among others.

Each attendee also left with a gift bag, that included certificates, samples and discounts from area organizations and businesses.

Note – You can stay informed about Westchester TweetUp information by searching #WestchesterTweet on Twitter, or by checking this site. The Twtvite.com site is a good resource for looking up those who attended the event (note that not everyone on the list actually attended).
