Bloggers’ Meetup Planned for Melbourne, Australia

Posted on April 21st, 2007 by Des Walsh in Blogging, Social Networks

Maybe it’s the onset of Anzac Day, prompting from Kathie, Melbourne’s well-known determination not to be outdone by the Emerald City, or frustration that the Great Aussie BloggerCon has not yet materialised, but more probably a result of the flurry of Aussie blog ranking/discovery/revealing of the diversity of the Oz blogosphere, started by Craig and kicked along by Meg, Duncan and others. Or Melbourne starting to get colder and people looking for a greater variety of indoor activity .

Or all of these.

Whatever the reason, Darren and Alister have taken steps to emulate the Sydneysiders and get a bloggers meetup group going - at last glance it had 42 members, which is impressive seeing it’s only just been announced.

Alister has all the details in his post - It’s time for Melbourne (AU) Bloggers to Get Together! - including how to sign up.

Good touch, Alister - the (AU). It will be a bit far for blogging Melburnians in Florida USA, Qu

    I’d say yes on all of these, Des - but probably more a frustration thing - we all keep talking about it … Lets Just Do It!!! :-)
    Also I think there is a greater appreciation out there than ever before that there are many Aussie bloggers slogging away at it and we’ve come to a sort of tipping point lately where we can say lets get together.
