The Fan Convention Twitter List

Twitter seems to be the new way to keep up on people and information in “real time” on the Internet and wireless handheld devices. We posted a request on the Con Central LiveJournal community a little while back, and the response has been pretty good. So we’ve gone through the post and organized links with other ones we’ve found. Of course, don’t forget to add ours… http://twitter.com/WasabiAnime :)

LAST UPDATE: 09/14/2009… We’ve split some of the genres to keep the Twitter feeds grouped more specifically. There are well over three hundred feeds for conventions and events of all types – so check it out!  Special thanks to Isaac Alexander for helping us stay on top of the updates!

Animation – Anime/Japanese Culture -  Anthro/Furry -  Comic -  Fantasy/Horror

    We have just started a twitter account here very recently. Our Twitter address is: https://twitter.com/tsubasacon

    Please pass along that our Convention is October 9th – 11th in Huntington, West Virginia. This will be our 6th year and we’re already lining up a lot of great events.

    Thanks,
    Doug

    MTAC Twitter

    There are three distinct message feeds for MTAC available through Twitter.com. Information on the feeds can be found at The feed listed above is only active from the Thursday before the convention until the Monday after the convention. Our main feed that is active year around is MTACAnnounce and receives messages in regards to guest and dealer announcements, hotel information, newly announced panels, upcoming volunteer meetings, MTAC get togethers, and other vital MTAC information.

    Is there any lobbying effort going on to get more conventions to use twitter? I can’t believe Megacon doesn’t have it’s account going yet. Same with Wondercon, ApeCon, SPX, Baltimore Comic Con, Penny Arcade Expo, VGXPO, BlizzCon, QuakeCon, Tokyo Game Show, Tokyo International Anime Fair, Toy Fair, Origins, etc…

  19. WasabiGuy Mar 16th 2009

    @Isaac: Regarding lobbying conventions to use Twitter – I think it is just like any other form of evolved marketing that has come about in the past 10-20 years. Word of mouth became flyers at comic shops became commercials on local radio and TV became websites became forums became blogs, etc.

    Sometimes it is just a matter of seeing how quick it takes some groups to “catch on.”

  20. Tom Brady Mar 16th 2009

    @WasabiGuy: In the furry fandom niche, it’s surprising how quickly things took off. In September, 2008, Midwest FurFest was (I believe) the first furry con to implement Twitter as a method to reaching out to our attendees. In addition to broadcasting announcements before the convention, we used TweetLater (an excellent free service) to schedule tweets announcing various convention events throughout the course of the weekend.

    Further Confusion went one better by actively monitoring the Twitter stream and addressing convention attendee’s questions and concerns in real time. This make Twitter an invaluable tool to bridge the gap between attendees and concom. (Though a conflict of the #fc09 hashtag between Further Confusion and Flat Conference 2009, an education conference in Australia, led to some amusing cross-traffic. Choose your hashtag wisely!)

    Since Midwest FurFest, many other (but not all) furry conventions implemented Twitter streams: Anthrocon, Further Confusion, Furry Fiesta, Furry Weekend Atlanta, Furry Connection North (http://twitter.com/furryconnect), Califur (http://twitter.com/califur), and Oklacon (http://twitter.com/oklacon). This is a case of a relatively small, technologically savvy community seeing what works and quickly adopting it.

    The list has been updated with the recent replies.

    Thanks everyone!

  24. I got a Patriots Tom Brady Jersey Mar 26th 2009

    As an Australia-based Patriots fan, I found your blog on google and read a few of your other Patriots posts.
    I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the good work. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.

  25. Isaac Alexander Mar 28th 2009

    Just a quick update. Please replace the ComicCon twitter account above with the official one here.

    The list has been updated again.

    The “Toronto After Dark Film Festival” was left off the list since it (seems that it) is not a public Twitter feed.

  28. Isaac Alexander Apr 10th 2009

    Thanks for adding the others above. I guess we’ll both have to wait for the Toronto After Dark Film Festival’s feed to go live later. Here’s some more to add.

    Weird that the news story posted on April 6 shows up on the comments section on April 11th. You might have a bug in your software for the site.

  30. admin Apr 11th 2009

    @Isaac Alexander: No bug… just a delay in approving the post (most likely.)

    What I was thinking of doing is just arranging everything I’ve submitted for the past month, into one post, so you don’t have to go between them all when updating the main one.

  45. WasabiGuy Jun 15th 2009

    @Isaac – not need to. I already have most of the updates in a temp html file on my laptop. It includes other Twitters we get from the WasabiAnime Twitter via DM.
    :)

  46. Isaac Alexander Jun 15th 2009

    Cool!
    FYI. Here’s some more. All are film festivals.

    *DELETIONS*
    -Please delete Flashback Weekend and KillerCon from SCIENCE FICTION CONVENTIONS.

The sites that you deleted above have been added below in the appropriate section. In the future, I’ll try to gather at least 30 feeds before posting.

When you’re doing making the update, I humbly ask for you to post the total amount of feeds that are on the list.

    After reading all the new links in the TECHNOLOGY section, I think we need to split it up and create a new section called SCIENCE. Here’s a list of all the events to put in this new SCIENCE Section. Whatever is left stays in the Technology section. I also just found out that PAX has finally added their own twitter feed. Url is below.

    FYI, SD_Comic_Con is not the official account for Comic-Con International, though it does have a lot of good news and info. The official account is actually http://twitter.com/Comic_Con

    Multigenre convention in Montreal, Canada, but people ussually refer to us as sci-fi con. Are you able to list us under both headings? If not, just under multigenre will do.

    Thanks for providing this service. I am new to Twitter.

    The correct entry for the Archon SF convention (listed as “ARchon St. Louis http://www.twitter/ArchonStl“) should be “Archon St. Louis http://www.twitter.com/ArchonStl“; i.e. the “.com” is missing from the URL in your listing.

    BayCon is a general SF/F convention in San Jose California. This twitter account was originally used by the newsletter jackals but is referenced as the official Twitter account on the con website.
