Last Wednesday Rebecca Corliss came by my desk at work and asked “Did you know Biz Stone is coming to Boston?” This question was the start of a hectic couple of days (for Rebecca, not me) to organize a Biz In Boston Tweetup. Luckily, Rebecca is awesome at this sort of thing and she pulled it off beautifully.  However, going into Friday, the day of the Tweetup, we had no idea if Biz would even be attending. Luckily we found out about 20 minutes ahead of time that he would actually be coming by for a short while.

Around 3pm the Tweetup kicked off with beer and local burger chain B.Good brought a ton of tasty sliders.  Biz was there early and chatted with everyone for a while. It was very cool to meet Biz; just the prior week I had seen his interview on The Colbert Report, so to be having a beer with him the next week was kind of surreal.  We even managed to snag him for a quick interview for HubSpot TV (embedded below).

Thanks to the Tweeple of Boston for coming out to the Tweetup, thanks to Rebecca for getting it organized and thanks to Biz for being the guest of honor.
