A blogger meet at Chennai after a long hiatus - I can't wait! :-)

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago
Do you guys have any suggestions for the agenda?

Ramasubramaniyan said 3 years ago
Waiting for such an event... Good that there is one in Chennai. As far as the agenda is concerned, I am really not sure how these events happen, as this is the first time I am planning to attend a bloggers meet and I am as such relatively new to blogging.

Karthik said 3 years ago
Blogger meet in Chennai, Woohoo! It has been a long time since the last meet. Sure as hell, I'll be there.

Cavin said 3 years ago
I am not sure if this has been discussed. What about bloggers rights? As in right to speech, IPR issues, right to stay anonymous etc.

Karthik said 3 years ago
We have actually discussed this a few blogger meets earlier. I think it was in Bangalore.

vishesh unni said 3 years ago
me registered..but whether I can make it or not depends on the place/time etc

Karthik said 3 years ago
the venue is confirmed to be GRT convention center. It will be between 2.30 and 6.00 PM. All you guys, register yourself and mark your calenders. We will be having some real fun this time.

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago
@Rahul - the T-shirts will be given out at the end of the meet. You don't have to wear it. :-) And for the landmark, come to Teynampet signal and ask anyone for GRT Grand, they'll point you. The venue is next to GRT Grand, at the GRT convention center.

S.Pradeep Kumar said 3 years ago
@ Renie : Registrations closed mate?

S.Pradeep Kumar said 3 years ago
@ S.K. : Got it! I'll Tweet with you mate...!

For first timers: last IndiBlogger meet was held on June 08, 2008. Here is the link to go through.http://www.marinebuzz.com/2008/06/08/an-evening-with-chennai-indibloggers/

S.Pradeep Kumar said 3 years ago
@ Renie and All : Some of my friends don't have a blog, so I believe they can't have an Indiblogger account, but they love and they are willing to attend this meet. Is it possible? ?

Rathna kumar said 3 years ago
OOPS!!!! Need to wait till Saturday :(

S.K said 3 years ago
I'd like to interact with 3 groups and exchange notes:

1. who blog in தமிழ் - and discuss about i18n and l10n
2. who live at Chennai - and plan for physical contacts on the sands of Marina!
3. who blog using their own domain name and WordPress suite - to dwell on geeky stuff!

Cheers!

Am very eager to attend and registered to. But would like to know if it is a real free to attend meet? Any payment to be made for registration, T.Shirt or kind of any other payment?

Karthik said 3 years ago
Hi Giri, This IS a free to attend meet. Only qualifier is that you have to be registered. Looking forward to meet you there. Cheers.

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago
@Pradeep - sorry buddy but we're already stretching capacity. We'll be lucky if GRT doesn't throw half of us out. :-)

S.Pradeep Kumar said 3 years ago
@ Renie : Oh! :( That's bad bro.. but what if some of the attendees didn't come? :D

Karthik said 3 years ago
I'm sure we are having a full house. I have seen just one cancellation which I'm sure will be filled by today or tomorrow! we only have 5 more seats.

Rahul Jain said 3 years ago
Hey many of my friends did receive confirmation call.. But I didn't receive any confirmation call? My slot will be definitely be there..? Just don't wanna miss this chance..

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago
@Varun - How to get prepared for an IndiBlogger Meet:
1. Brush Teeth
2. Put on shoes, t-shirt and maybe a pair of pants as well
3. Land up at the right address :-)

@Rahul - don't worry about not receiving a call, it was for follow up, not confirmation.

S.K said 3 years ago
@Renie, - Brush my teeth? Yes, I'll attend to that for sure! Don't want to make the meeting redolent with pungent odour. Thanks for reminding me. :)

S.K

SANDEEP VARMA said 3 years ago

@ Renie Ravin- That was a real rib-tickler! :) Hey..what abt bath? better make it a must too! If i were u..i wd 've asked Varun to come to the meet with a thesis on Astro physics! [cdnt resist that! ] :)

Sathyanarain said 3 years ago
Varun, Now that'a really tricky question you asked - how to prepare for the meet! But I guess Renie gave you some pointers. You may also consider taking a shower, but again, its an option! Just come! Its gonna be fun.

Hi.Renie,

I have posed my REVIEW of the Chennai meet (20/03/2010) in my Blog http://ssekar.blogspot.com
Unfortunately no one has seen it so far . You have also not added in your Review List. Please add the same.
I think I have posted my Review properly and the method is correct.
Please be kind enough to acknowledge and Do the Needful .

Thanks and Regards
Sekar Saptharishi

srivikas said 3 years ago

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago

I have not reviewed the event...but my thoughts about Mr.Balabarathi's speach in the meet.....

தமிழும் தமிழனும்! - http://www.sasariri.com/2010/03/blog-post_29.html
If you want translation to this write up...pls let me know!

Renie Ravin said 3 years ago
@Giri - translation please! :-)

S.K said 3 years ago
I think we can have follow-up meetings (an informal one) of 2 sub-groups: viz, Chennai-based bloggers and those who use self-hosted WordPress software with their own-domain name(s).

Interested friends may please respond here and/or @kichu. We'll take it from there. I also offer to provide free assistance for setting up your own blog.

Cheers!

S.K

Malathy Badri said 3 years ago
I would like to know why there must be groups? I am not resisting anything but still I would like to know why. One group may be missing the others. In fact, I saw some very well written blogs in blogger platform.

I too am happy to share my 5 years of blogging knowledge especially in areas like blog traffic, blog monetization, blogging tools, RSS feed syndication etc.

Rumjhum Biswas said 3 years ago
Hi all,
