Mashable's second stop on the #Hyatt4Good Tweetup Tour is Chicago.
Congratulations: We’re also supporting and celebrating the August launch of Sevans Strategy, a Chicago-based public relations and new media consultancy, from Chicago entrepreneur and Mashable guest writer, Sarah Evans.
Each tweetup will feature a local sponsor to help cover some
food/drinks and a cash bar will be available. The style is an informal
mixer for the social media community, and we look forward to meeting
all of you.
