. . . would be awesome, but we’ll have to settle for a meeting of us simple blogging folk.
JD from Grain of Salt, Janice from Cowhampshire, New Hampshire Blogging, and some other blogs, and myself have decided that a meeting of NH Bloggers is called for. This won’t be anything formal (we are New Hampshirites after all), but will be a chance for the NH blogging community to get together and swap stories, ideas. .. and oh Hell, just to mingle and have a good time!
We are shooting for October 14 of this year. Location will be determined later, but most likely it will be in Concord. Somewhere.
This gathering will bo open to everyone from the serious, die-hard, political blogger, to the hobbyist photo-blogger, to the post-once-in-a-blue-moon mommy blogger.
Right now we are trying to gauge interest. If this sounds like something you are interested in, you can comment here, or on any of the blogs linked in this post. As we move forward, we’ll probably set up a web page information board, so you can keep up to date on the status of this gathering.
Cheers, and happy blogging!

Well, so far you’re the only one who responded. . . I hope some actual New Hampshirites are interested. Otherwise I’m gonna be awefully lonely there.

Wow, I don’t know if bloggers should meet in person. That might be like matter and anti-matter coming together, wouldn’t it?
Still, I’m always game for a good explosion
Count me in….

LOL Larc.
And I hope that “Yes!” means you’ll try to make it, Amy. I created a page on my blog here were I’ll be posting updates on this. As things get solidified, I’ll be sure to keep everyone informed. See the “NH Blog Con” box at the upper left hand of my blog.

Great to have you on-board Ernesto, and thanks for the link back. This should be a hoot.

Would love to attend.
I’m the famed “corporate blogger” at Stonyfield Farm, and am now also a consultant in corporate blogging. I would love to meet up with bloggers in my neck of the woods!

Good idea. Even sooner would be better. (October seems a long way off but I know how people can scatter in the summer.)

Rick,
Thats what we figured when we were planning this. I would love to do it sooner as well, but I know a lot of people wouldn’t be able to make it. I’m fairly certain we’ll stick with October, but if there is a huge outcry for an earllier one, we may change it.
