Sara (aka the Bargain Queen), is my fabulous assistant organiser (who incidentally is featured in Take5 magazine) for the Sydney weblogger meetup and was kind enough to give me a reminder prod:
Dear fellow bloggers
You are receiving this email because your entry in the Australian Blogs database indicated you are Sydney-based blogger who has asked to be kept informed of developments in the blogging community.
Hope that 2007 is off to a good start for you. Like me, you may have a feeling that this will be the year blogging really takes off in Australia. In November 2006, veteran Australian blogger Tim Dunlop (creator of The Road to Surfdom) was recruited by News Ltd. to write for their new big-budget title ‘Blogocracy’. Who knows – could you be next?
With this in mind, I thought you might like to come along to a social meeting of Sydney pro-bloggers, hobbyist bloggers (and their fans) on Thursday evening (18th) at Paddy Maguire’s in Haymarket at 7pm. The details of the meetup and the RSVP list are here: http://blog.meetup.com/371/calendar/5286606/ Â
You may find this to be a good opportunity to mix in an informal setting, and to meet others who share your blogging endeavours.
Hope you can make it, and look forward to meeting you there.
Best wishes
Sara Goldstein
The Bargain Queen
