People

If you know someone's real name or Twitter username ("@krrish"), you can find them by searching in the Redrovr search box.

Yes. Right now everyone has to have a Twitter account to be on Redrovr. Soon, we'll let you add anyone, but right now we're just focusing on Twitter users.

Yes. Just like how you follow people on Twitter but you also have followers. You're a fan of other people, but other people might be your fan and want you to come to their city.

Check their Twitter username. Every person on Redrovr is linked to a Twitter account, so if their Twitter username is correct, then that is the right person!

Redrovr allows anyone to create a Redrovr page for any Twitter user. If a person's Redrovr page says "Fan-Created Profile" in the top-right corner, that person has not yet started using Redrovr. Send them an email or a tweet to tell them to join and meet their fans on Redrovr!

Events

Yes, events on Redrovr are all about people, and you must be a fan of someone to propose or support an event for them.

Proposed events are ideas for possible events, created by fans like you. They will only happen when the person the event is for agrees to do the event. If you want a proposed event to happen, support it! The events with the most fan support are the most likely to be confirmed!

You can propose an event for someone from the Events tab on their Redrovr profile.

A confirmed event is an event that the speaker or guest of honor has agreed to.

Non-Redrovr events are events outside of Redrovr, like conferences that people are attending.

The person the event is for must accept the event proposal.

Create a proposed event with the info you have! You can add a date later, or ask the speaker in the comment section what dates work for them.

A cafe or a bar may be the right choice for your event. You can often book rooms at libraries and universities. If you don't have a venue in mind, ask event supporters in the comment section for their suggestions. Meetup.com also has some guidelines on finding the right venue.

Send them an email or a tweet to start using Redrovr!

Yes, for now. Paid events are coming.
