We are delighted to announce that Leapfrogg is sponsoring the Brighton Twestival on the 12th February.

Twestival is a social event for users of the micro-blogging service Twitter (Twitter + Festival = Twestival).

The original Twestival, which took place in London last year, was organised by a small group of Twitterers who decided to organise an event where the local Twitter community could meet offline, enjoy some entertainment, have a few drinks and tie this in with a food drive and fundraising effort for a local homeless charity.

This year Twestival has gone global.

Brighton is one of over 125 cities around the world holding a Twestival event on the 12th February.

Each and every city is raising money for charity:water, a non-profit organisation dedicated to bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations.

The Brighton Twestival will be taking place at the Black Lion on Black Lion Street in Brighton. Check out the Brighton website for further details and to book tickets.

It promises to be a great evening and a chance, not only to raise money for a wonderful cause, but to meet the faces behind the avatars.

See you there!
