Mumbai Meetup, January 31st

by Unknown on 14:57

In conjunction with Scott Rafer, WINKsite , Metroblogging and Bloggers everywhere, I’m announcing a meetup on Tuesday, 31st of January at 6 p.m. at the Carter Road - Cafe Coffee Day (Bandra West). So if you live/work in or around Mumbai or you intend to be in Mumbai on the 31st please do drop by.

Here is the full address.

Shop No. 14/15,
Gagangiri Premises Building,
Ground Floor,
Carter Road
Bandra
Mumbai-52

If you have any questions, or would like to confirm your attendance, leave us a comment or fire off an email to akshaym [at] gmail[dot] com. Also, feel free to get in touch with me at 9833230562, as long as you're not trying to sell me something that is.

For directions use the Mumbai Navigator stating caterroad(pali) as your desitination

I realize that I donot have the readership nor the reach to pull this off alone so people please do spread the word.

UPDATE 1 : Many thanks to Charu, Sakshi, Saket, Dina & Desipundit for spreading the word.

UPDATE 2: The Blog meet could be best described as a success, about 20 people turned up (Evenstar has the complete list) & we all shared allot loud pleasant conversation over coffee, donuts and vanilla ice-cream. Melody has a complete round-up on her blog.
Scott has one on his blog too.

I will be metroblogging soon too. I could not comment on your metblog articles because I am a blogspot user :-( But Sean said my metblogs account is soon being created!

I blog anonymously, so it wouldn't be quite right for me to show up for the meet, hmm? I'll think about it and put up a post on my blog about this meet.; January 17, 2006 6:01 PM

Naina said...: Akshay,

First - who knew Blogger could look so stuning! Fantastic job!

Second, I've taken the liberty to post the event as "Mumbai blogging meet" on Eventful.com ; Upcoming.org ; del.icio.us/events; ping-o-matic and Technorati.

It is injustice if bloggers do not get to hear of this! :)
Although my blog does not have many Indian readers, I will post a link there too [ I have three main blogs with separate readerships - not on Blogger but on Wordpress ].

Now I'm wondering, how will Cafe Coffee Day handle the pressure? :D

Third, good photography!

Fourth, I had no idea there was a Mumbai Navigator - thanks for sharing.

See you on the 31st!
Take care,

Anonymous said...: oye yaar.. 31st is a weekday, wouldnt it be difficult for most of our working public to turn up that day?; January 27, 2006 1:49 AM
mandar talvekar said...: hi,
would have liked to be there but it's a tuesday and getting away from work that early is difficult.
can't the meeting be held on a weekend?; January 30, 2006 9:59 AM
Unknown said...: I know it would be difficult for some of you guys turn up so early - you could just turn up late. It's not an issue.

I can't really change the date because, Scott decided the date and he's here in Mumbai only for a short time.

Looking forward to seeing you guys.; January 30, 2006 10:59 AM
