Growth in Twitter participation this year at the HRPA has been spectacular. Last year when I first launched our Twitter event at HRPA 2010 we had a total of 52 Tweeps participating. Not bad given there was no official promotion, sponsors or big bad Tweet Wall. This year it looks like we will have more than tripled the number of Tweeps to 175.

But it doesn’t all end this afternoon, make sure you stay connected with all these Tweeps because we’re going to triple again next year. To facilitate this I’ve put together a HRPA 2011 Twitter list that you can follow throughout the year. Click here to follow the list.

I’ve tried to keep track and capture all participating Tweeps in this list however if I missed anyone Tweet me at @geoffclen and I’ll add you to the list.

Enjoy the rest of the show, I’ll be back with some final stats tonight.

Great show everyone!

I didn’t think it possible, but you Tweeps at #hrpa2011 really did it!  Yes, we exceeded the record set yesterday with 164 unique authors and a potential market reach of more than 53,000.

Today’s top Tweep was without a doubt @joannawoo, how does she type so fast!  Also making the top Tweep list:

@AgileDudes
@TREventsCanada
@geoffclen
@k8mcyap
@jenniferaking
@josephinemeleca

I hope everyone is looking forward to tomorrow, let’s keep up the Tweets and get the message out.

Day 2 of the #hrpa2011 conference seems to be off to a great start! This morning we had 138 unique Tweeps participating in the conversation, giving us a potential market reach of 45,500!

I arrived here this morning from Mississauga, ironically the traffic was worse today than it was yesterday. Regardless, looks like a great crowd again!

The first place I migrated too once I arrived was the Great Wall of Tweets as I call it. Looks fantastic but I see @joannawoo is now the number one Tweep!

Well deserved, if you want to see pretty much everything that is going on at the show or at least all that is fit to Tweet, go to search.twitter.com and enter @joannawoo, it’s like you are actually there.

Here it is, hot off the presses, the first edition of the HRPA 2011 Conference Round Up newspaper. I’ll be publishing this show summary each morning and evening to Twitter and by email. I hope you all enjoy it.
