The BMPR

Imagine a recreational and amusement park where children in wheelchairs can play in the sand with accessible diggers and climb on and off swings with carefree ease. What about a carousel with specially designed animal seats for guests who cannot sit upright? Off-road jeep adventures with accessible vehicles? Gordon Hartman did. Today that $30 million, [...]

July’s tweetup was our biggest one yet. We want to say thank you to all 96 of you who attended, those watching from the office / home and those who were unable to attend but were there in spirit. If you missed any of it we have a recap for you. Hope to see you [...]

Hang on to your hats we’ve got good news and sad news. Sad news first: Andi Narvaez, our dear friend and co-founder of SAMPRB, is leaving us. Lucky for her, the move is a good one.

If there was one thing to take away from the first, very successful, San Antonio Media/Public Relations/Business (SAMPRB) St. Patrick’s Day tweetup (besides the great people, delicious food and lively discussion) it was the fact that this niche group of fellow Twittering San Antonians are clamoring for more opportunities to get together with peers and [...]

I once wrote a post… and it went a little something like this. “A little story – A co-worker was meeting a fellow Twitterer for real-time lunch. I was sad I couldn’t join them so I tweeted that I may just crash their next lunch date…. Actually, I’ll just let Twitter do the talkin’” SAMPRB is the epitome of one [...]
