Finally,
The day of reckoning : DC Area Bloggers Meet. Mukund, Ganesh, Eshwar
, Shiva, Raman, Senthil and Robbie attended the meet. It was a good start. As Mukund pointed out ;p, the quantity did not matter, quality did
It was so much fun. Almost everyone shed their inhibitions, (helo, inhibitions i.e. ice melting) and was training guns on others' blogging techniques. The leg pulling was pretty obvious. Everyone aimed at the 'increase-your-size of comments', 'how to get more visitors' techniques of others.
It has been a long time, almost since my college days, that i had such laugh-riot for the entire duration of the meet.
We did miss, Srikanth, but i think we can setup one more meet, East Coast or MidAtlantic Area Bloggers meet, may be couple of months from now, where we will hope to have bigger presence and larger meet.
Cheers everyone to the good time we had ! :-)

Ganesh,
Anytime, adhu seri, adhukku edhukku oru 'ahem' ;)
eppam vandhirukkum paavam hahaha! poor ganesh cant even take a deep breath without being noticed.
what about this as the name for our group... THE DC BLOGOMANIACS? We should include that in our logo the next time:P
East coast meet.. aiya ready..
yaaru dr.aiya va ? idhu bloggers meet..katchi kootam illa - vitta blog kkum tamil'a peru veyunga nu arambichuda poranga ;) ( how about "iNaya ezhuthALi makkal katchi" ? )
aiya va aiyo va ioiio va ?
ioiio,
sure, watch the blog space...sollave thevai illai - but nonetheless, there will be blitz marketing for something as big as east coast blogger meet ! :-)
Arvind, your idea of a bigger geographical meet (like East Coast bloggers meet) is a good one since I am sure people like Venky, IOIIO, Prabhu, Anti etc. can also attend. Let's see how the others feel about this since a bigger gang can also mean greater fun (going by how much just 8 people generated yesterday) :-)
It really was great fun yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed. I had a difficult time picking myself up from the floor. adhaan, rotfl, guys! :-)
Thennavan,
It seems like a lot of people would've come this time if we invited them (ref: comments section of my blog). At the same time I also feel that we got to know each other better because of the small number of people that were present. I guess we should retain this group of 8 or more (including Srikanth) for our next meeting and then try and attract new people. I would like to call our group the DC blogomaniacs.We should also probably think of starting a blog together where everyone of us contributes a post.
Thennavan/Robbie,
Sure, the greater DC area blogger meet, can be arranged and then expanded
Raman,
ROTFL - LOL - ROTFL

Hiya, just stumbled upon the site, a fellow DC area blogger. I'll have to check your blog more often - interesting takes.
I'd love to be involved in your next DC area blog meetup also.
