We hope this will allow loads of developers around the world to participate. We’ll be keeping an eye on #devnest hash tag, please use this if you have something to contribute.

The team at Twitter will be participating remotly, Twitter Co-founder, Biz Stone (@biz) got in touch to say:

We’re looking forward to the cool projects that will be hatched at the Twitter Developer Nest. The work coming out of the Twitter developer community is not only inspiring—it also creates important variety for users.

We’ll be joined by Doug Williams (@dougw) who heads up Twitter API Support for a Q&A session at 7:30pm GMT. If you have a question for Doug please tweet it and use the hash tag #devnest.

The full schedule for the evening is as follows:
