Dr. Thomas Ho sent me down the internet archive rabbit hole today when he tweeted that it is the 10th anniversary of the first Indianapolis Twitter meetup. I have been getting in the habit of archiving events on my site, so I started by searching my old tweets. I found the original Upcoming.org (Yahoo, actually) event URL. Since they re-launched in recent years and archived old events, I was able to find that and set up my own event page.

Here are some other links related to the event, so I have them all in one place:

We were so young and Twitter was so much fun! Good times. Let me know if you have any other photos or information to add.
