Does IndiBlogger or Vineet Rajan sponsor for traveling from Hyderabad to Pune meet?

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
Ha ha... Madhu - we'll try! :-)

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
Vineet Rajan is yet to get his first salary! :)

Karamveer said 2 years ago
Hi! I have recently joined the indiblogger and actually were not aware that such meets are happening in India as well. I will be joining this pune meet. I am from pune. :)

Tito said 2 years ago
Would I have the privilege to decide the menu? I will surely keep in mind the cost factor and do with meats which are less expensive. :P

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
tito, what kind of menu do you have in mind? I hope you are aware that the main agenda is not stomach or food! :D And as far as the agenda goes, I would like suggestions from all of you. My email address and number is already given. Drop me a line.

Ritu said 2 years ago
Hi Vineet, Sorry can't make it... Got a doc's appointment for my kids between 3-5pm that very day!!!!

madhu.g said 2 years ago
Renie thats lovely answer. I know you will do it :)

Renie Ravin said 2 years ago
Ritu, if you make it by 6 PM - you'll be just in time for the pizza! :-)

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
hi ritu, 3-5 right? so what u can come after its done! why would anyone complain?

Karamveer said 2 years ago
Is this "Symbiosis Bhavan" near range hills? The one in that army area near khadki?

Karamveer said 2 years ago
I just made a post about it my blog.

Djoh said 2 years ago
Hi, I'm french and living in Pune, and I'm a blogger too. I blog in french, and I talk about... guess what... india & pune :) Is there anything plan during the meeting, or is it a simple get-together-and-see-what-we-can-talk-about thing ?

Djoh said 2 years ago
Oh plz, don't use moderation for comments... this sucks !

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
thanks karamveer for the blog post! I have also mentioned the landmarks. if u know the e-square, u can easily find the place.

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
djoh, great to have you. There is an agenda for the meet. It would be put up in some time. Its going to be great fun. the agenda is there just to avoid confusion. great blog u have there. why dont u blog about the meet in (in french of course!)

Sakshi said 2 years ago
Just wanted to know...is the meet ONLY for bloggers or blog readers are also welcomed.

Djoh said 2 years ago
Vineet, I will ! Though I'm not sure I'll be available on sat afternoon... The meeting is in Symbi on Senapati Bapad Road, right ?

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
hi djoh, the one we are orgaznizing is NOT on Senapati bapat road. this is near the Atur center, off university road opposite E-square Cinema Hall.

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
dear sakshi, Thats a great blog you have by the way! The meet is for registered users of indiblogger. And only those registered can participate. Making it open for all, can dilute the event. Please bear with us for the same.

Samir Shah said 2 years ago
Dear Vineet, I had registered before. Sorry, I will not be able to make it. Samir Shah

Vineet Rajan said 2 years ago
