BIG THANK YOU to all the people who participated in our GroupMe groups!
We had 150 people in the Live Chat group and 132 people in the RSVP group.
After the success of our GroupMe experiment during SXSW, I decided to keep the fun going!
Use the Nitewire (Live Chat) group renamed Unofficial Nitewire to connect with people on any given night and find out what is happening around town.
Just keep it nightlife-related!
If you’re not in it yet, simply download the GroupMe app on your smartphone and join Unofficial Nitewire group.
