As we are all slowly waking up across the country from an exciting night of Meet, Plan, Go! events, it’s hard to wrap our heads around all that happened. But from tweet impressions alone, it sounds like an inspiring night was had across the board.
In a 24 hours span alone, 695 tweets generated 2,495,023 impressions, reaching an audience of 1,002,226 followers. Wow!
If you couldn’t make an event, or wanted to hear about what happened in other cities (we do!), we thought we’d share some highlights we saw tweeted.
