227 Top Tweets from #prsa_ic
The annual Public Relations Society of America International Conference was held October 16 – 19, 2010 at the Washington DC Hilton.
3,129 PR professionals met for the four days and attended a series of main stage keynotes, break out sessions and informal workshops.
Over 1,000 attendees generated over 6,000 tweets under the hashtag #prsa_ic. (An additional 134 mobile phone users, frustrated with the difficulties in using a hashtag with an underscore, created 300+ tweets under the hashtag #prsa10. Read some of the debate this caused below.)
Twitter is ephemeral. It only maintains 10-14 days of content, so this information will soon disappear. However, here’s a useful permanent archive all of the tweets. It’s with deep gratitude to all the attendees who posted their messages that this content has been made available worldwide on Twitter. Thanks!
Building on an idea of listing of “top tweets” I’ve experimented with at other conferences, I’ve curated a list of 227 tweets I found most content-rich and interesting; adding links where appropriate for easy reference; consolidating others; editorializing as indicated by [ … ]. Removing the re-tweets (RT’s) alone reduced the number of total tweets by 33%. The list below is in alphabetical order – no judgment is implied by being #1, #10 or #110.
I feel that this summary listing demonstrates the power of social media to magnify elements of an event that would otherwise have been lost.
Please share your own experiences of the event in the blog comments (or on Twitter!). I apologize in advance if I omitted your favorite tweet – feel free to search the archive and add it to the comments below.
Enjoy!

Hi Ian:
Thank you for collecting all these interesting tweets in one spot!
If it helps, we set up TwapperKeepers before PRSA Int’l Conference on pr_leaders (Leadership Assembly), prsa_ic, prsa10 and prsa2010 (I did them as keywords, not hashtags, which is why they may not have come up in a search).
Trying a third time to set up a collection which will gather up the strictly Conference based tweets under the multiple hashtags – hoping this one is the charm.
Hope this is useful!

Ian – Fantastic resources, and thanks for pulling together such a broad glimpse of the chatter and insight from PRSA International Conference. It was a great event, and as you noted, generated quite a lot of Tweets from across the public relations space.
One quick spot you may want to correct: The conference actually had 3,129 attendees. You have it listed as 1,900 in your post.
Again, thanks for offering this fantastic resource and for taking the time to pull it all together.
