DC Bloggers

Last week, I went to my first DC Blogger Meetup meeting at Madam's Organ. It was a great chance to meet and talk with people who blog about a wide variety of topics and who were more than willing to provide their insight and expertise.

If you get a chance...check out their blogs:

Leon -- Listen to Leon
Bill -- Clarendon Nights
Dave Newman -- Groovy Soup
Shevonne -- Free Agent Writer
Kier Duros -- Durosia
Mike Licht -- DC Blogs
Yali Friedman -- Biotech Blog
Margie Newman -- Flack Rabbit
Joe Logon -- Dumb Things I Have Done Lately
Marie -- Merblog
Jade -- Jadxia Live Journal
A Glenn -- Comings and Goings & Good and Green

UPDATE: Of course, it goes without saying that once I implement some of the great ideas these people are giving me to market my blog and increase readership, I will become very important and fabulous. I may not remember your name. Don't take it personally.

UPDATE 2: Apparently, I slept with an editor of the Washington Post Express in a previous life. And in spite of that, they gave my blog another mention today.

That's right. Listen to Leon. He knows.

Tard -- You know what's great? I had seen his blog before and remembered it because of YOU. When I saw him at the meetup, I got all gushy like I was meeting a celebrity. He's hilarious and adorable. (As all Leons are...)

You make me want to puke.

Although that could be the after-effects of Belgian Independence Day.

And FYI...not that I wouldn't shill for these folks out of the goodness of my (small, black) heart...but I get points for doing so for my Meetup group.

You guys were at Brasserie Beck? How was it?

"Slept with." Is that what the kids are calling giving CPR to somebody these days? Makes it all sound so innocent.

Margie - You're funny. Thanks for stopping by. BTW, I've checked out your friend's Suburban Turmoil...good stuff..

Margie said...

Good! She's too fabulous. For real.

Appreciate your comment on my site; my hubby did created Flackrabbit--the joys of being married to a web designer!
