One of the most fun things I did on Twitter before *gestures at everything* was accidentally start a conference based on a tweet.

#NormConf is a 100% free online data conference happening December 15 and you can get tickets and swag here. Today, my t-shirt arrived!

Normconf

Normconf is the tech conference about all the stuff that matters in data and machine learning, but doesn't get the spotlight

@vicki We did the same... it was not on twitter, but Jaiku (which was purchased by google, integrated into their chat and then killed off). But we started off as a Tech podcast, moved on to a Linux podcast (Linux Outlaws) and then became OggCamp which has been running as a conference for over 10 years.
