My Name is IRL
Tweet-ups seem to be the latest rage with kids these days. I’ve seen it mentioned a couple times in my area but the trend hasn’t really hit the Midwest in full force yet. But just this week I’ve had 3 in real life (IRL) meetings with people I only knew online.

Just finished a fight with Google, IE8, & Firefox so felt really smart–NOW, really not smart? What is “IRL”, how am I so out of the loop once again ?
Please tell me it is a ‘Minnesota Thing”; since I /we are from Michigan with it’s 15.? % unemployment-it may be my Brain-Drain; everything else seems to be leaving this State–LOL

Ben – isn’t it great to put 3D faces with the @? I’ve really enjoyed meeting peeps (or tweeps) …
Barb – you are adorable! Minnesota can’t take credit on that. IRL = In Real Life. I think it started as a TRL (three letter acronym) in instant messaging. These days the Tweet ups or Bar Camps bring the relationship from online to IRL. Don’t worry … you still got some charge left.
