For our tech friends, here is a quick guide to building your own Google/Twitter map mashup.

Note: You must enable Twitter geo-location to get your own tweets to appear on the map. Learn how to do this.

#Tweetaround = A Global Conversation

Please join us, and participants from over 50 countries to date, in an experiment to connect and engage the world in global conversations.

"#tweetaround" is a hashtag used to define a comment or conversation that is global in nature because it 1.) deals with global topics AND 2.) is conducted by or between a global community of participants (two or more people in different countries).

To join the experiment, simply create a new conversation by tweeting #tweetaround + <insert your hashtag here>, your comment or question.

For Example: #tweetaround + #FIFA, who do you think will win the women's world cup?
