Last month, we went to Bristol on a TwiTrip, where for an entire day our reporter's actions were solely inspired by real-time advice from Twitter users. He hung out in record shops, had an agreeable lunch, stared into arty space in galleries, supped pints in a few nice pubs, then rounded the evening off with a gig. All in all, not a bad day.
In fact, all of our TwiTrips so far (Bristol was preceded by Blackpool and Brighton, and before that by San Francisco and Paris) have delivered the goods ... churning out quirky recommendations and unexpected angles. And, of course, experiencing it live was a lot of fun.
Next week we're off again - this time to Birmingham (we've got a thing about the Bs), home of the Balti, the new Bullring, Black Sabbath (back in the day) and Bourneville. Not to mention lots of contemporary art spaces.
On Tuesday morning (20 October), our writer Sarah Turner will board a train at London's Euston station bound for the second city. Once again, she has nothing planned. When she arrives at Birmingham New Street station, she will sling questions into the Twittersphere and wait for helpful suggestions to put together a cracking day and evening out.
Hopefully, she won't have to wait too long.
