Hmm... so many have meetings... but lets make this meeting for a cause. We will surely have fun. But lets do something for others like street beggers, or any ideas are welcome.

I regret to inform you all that Anoop will be unable to attend the meet as he has a rather severe case of dysentery.

Ha ha... We have something we call the IndiBlogger Jig, and Anoop would be happy to demonstrate like he did in Bangalore... unfortunately, his gastronomical dilemma has reached astronomical proportions and his outlook looks quite bleak at the moment. :-)

Guys, I'm quite new to Hyderabad and not familiar with the city properly. I'm new to Indiblogger.in as well. It'll be a different experience altogether for me. Quite interesting! Could someone guide me abt the meeting?

Sudeep, thanks for the post! Himank has blogged about the meet as well. We really appreciate the reviews and the feedback you all took the time to provide. We've uploaded the first batch of pictures on the IndiBlogger group on Flickr. Please add your own pics to the group as well. The team doesn't have any pictures of the skit, so if anyone else has a few, please send them across! :-)

@fibinse - Thanks for the review, and please do send us your pics!
@Maruti - The comments are moderated, so they may take a while to show up, sorry! Thanks for the awesome review on the Indiblaaager meet :-) :-)
@Sanjay - We're glad you had as much fun as we did! This was the first meet in Hyderabad, and there's only so much we can do within a couple of hours - but next time around, we'll definitely have more interactive sessions which would be useful for bloggers.
@Ravi - "As the session concluded, everyone had a great experience, which was pretty evident from their faces!! Great work by the team Indiblogger…" - that line just about did it for us. Thank you!
Guys, a word for Balaji - he's the one who called for the meet, and without him, this would not have happened! (And the IndiBlogger team would still be looking for the venue)

@Manjula - Thanks for the pic! @ Srikanth - I'll let Anoop answer that one himself. As for the belly dance, I might comply the next time, assuming I have many more beers than I did in Hyderabad! :-)
