Sunday afternoon, with the event scheduled to start at two, i rode the surprisingly empty streets of Bangalore to reach the venue.
Fortune Park stood majestic looking over the flyover that ran past the race course. Walking into the reception and lobby the only two words in my head were elegant and classy.
"Seventh floor, The Tunnel" the reception guy smiled welcoming me to the hotel.
I walked into the lift with a fellow blogger, little did i know then that he held a PhD in Solar Energy.
The Tunnel, with blue lights circling from the bottom of the wall to the ceiling, felt more like an entrance to a Disco.
The Indiblogger team was ready to welcome us, with a couple of new faces who had joined the team, Anoop, Anwin, Karthik welcomed us with a cheerful smile, and some powerful shakes (hand). Ravin as always walked around with his trade mark camera hanging by his neck. A few bloggers here, a few there. I stood for a second trying to look for a familiar face.
This being my third blogger meet I was more than hoping to running into some blogger friends. The narrow hall pimped with a big screen projector which was hooked onto a laptop, looked all the more ready to take the event to a all new level.
As I walked further towards the screen I heard a guy complain of hash tags and spacing, not to my surprise it turned out to be MSIGeek, the master tweeter and technology expert, beside him sat Raj an avid tweeter. Saraswathan. R the eldest blogger in the house, S.R Ayyangar retired Bank Manger and an active blogger, Raghav the man who defines inspiration for me. I took an empty seat beside a gamer boy actually Quaker boy, a game designer and developer.
Anoop took control of the mike and pushed the event rolling
