Yes, because I chose to stream at the same time. It also gives people a sense of presence like someone is actually there. But I'm self-conscious believe it or not lol. I was self-critical about my posture and about the lighting because I felt it wasn't flattering (and because I couldn't use my green screen.) If you're not streaming live, that's one less thing to worry about. Also, there's lots of tutorials on how to have a twitter party or twitter chat event on google. It's a very common thing and I didn't make it up. Lots of companies and people have twitter parties. :) So you can do whatever you like and are most comfortable with. My vision for my events don't have to be duplicated. The challenge is really just to get out there and spread the steem. What Jerry did was awesome actually. I wish I had the luxury of his budget and his technology set up. If I did, I still would have done it differently as far as "show format" but I would have still did the twitter party. Most of my issues were living up to my own expectations. Other than the length of the show, I had no complains. Actually, I got 50+ followers and lots of compliments and DMs with offers. :)
