Meetups

Looks like this week’s bloggers meetup went well. It’s a pity I couldn’t make it, because I would have loved to have caught up with JOOB and his parents! Sounds like Simone had a good time, as did Dee (take a look at the giant-gherkin-in-a-can!).

And speaking of meetups, Jon of AustralianBlogs has an idea for a virtual meetup of bloggers in January – on the 10th. He’s set up a chat room. You’ll need to create an account for yourself if you’d like to join in. I have – I’ll actually be in Sydney that week so I’ll see if I can get myself to an Internet cafe at that time!

I agree with Jon: “(I don’t know about you but) face-to-face is hard work”. I find virtual meets more satisfying than face-to-face, especially when there are lots and lots of people I don’t know. The Perth bloggers meetup is not too bad now I know a few people, though.

I’m more scared of the big gherkin than I am of blogger meetups but I’m looking forward to the virtual meetup too. I hope I remember… 🙂

That’s a big gherkin (said in Deuce Bigalow-speak)
