The 8th Tunisian blogger meetup will be held tomorrow November 18th at Biwa, behind the Golden Bowling, in Les Berges du Lac at 8PM.
I hope you can all make it and be there. It should be a lot of fun as usual 🙂
Looking forward to seeing you all again and meeting some new people too…
Cya tomorrow…
In the last blogger meetup, we talked about having the next Tunisian blogger meetup on November 18th, and well that’s next week already 🙂
The suggested place and time were Biwa in Les Berges du Lac at 8PM, anyway now after the announced traffic plans for the days of the summit, do you think it’ll still be possible to have it there?
If not, where do you suggest we have it?
Please leave a comment with your ideas.
Our friend Adib has suggested we have the next meetup in Kelibia, which I personally think would be really cool.
Also when we talked about this in the last meetup, everyone seemed excited about it.
So, here’s the idea. We can meet together in one place in Tunis, split ourselves between the available cars and then all drive to Kelibia together for a nice meetup day.
The best thing for a meetup like this would be a weekend. Either a Saturday or Sunday.
So basically we have 4 of those:
– Weekend of 6-7 August
– Weekend of 13-14 August
– Weekend of 20-21 August
– Weekend of 27-28 August
So, please leave a comment with your choice of weekend, your choice of day (Saturday or Sunday), and whether you have a car or not (If yes, how many people can you take with you?).
So, we just got home from the 4th Tunisian blogger meetup, which was another great success by all standards 🙂
This one was even longer than the previous ones; We started at 7PM and finally remembered to go home at 1:15AM, lol.
13 bloggers turned up for this meetup, more than I ever expected especially that it was held on such short notice.
The blogs represented today were: Infinity, Tom, Diana Magazine, Marouen, Zizou, Troubadour, La Guilde, 7ammadi, Blogeuse, Evil Drako, AquaCool and Subzero Blue.
We missed the people who couldn’t make it. Make sure you all come next time 🙂
We talked about a lot of stuff as usual; from blogging in general, to the Tunisian blogosphere, to organization of meetups, to suggestions to make things go smoother, to religion, to work, to internet connections…etc.
As usual, it was really a lot of fun and very interesting dicussing all these different issues with a bunch of great people with unique points of view.
It’s a very enriching experience.
We’re lucky the weather was nice; not too hot. We sat in Biwa’s garden overlooking the lake of Tunis. It did get a bit more humid towards the end of the meetup, but it was ok.
Adib, who couldn’t make it today, and who was missed a lot, is suggesting we have the next meetup in Kelibia.
Expect a post about it soon on his blog and maybe here too.
Update: I just remembered to mention that in this meetup we broke our record on the number of female bloggers present; we had five this time 🙂
Hopefully, in the future, more and more girls will come to the meetups.
After yesterday’s post, it seems more people are for having a meetup this Friday than next Saturday.
Again, I know this is on a very short notice, and I hate that. I know some of you won’t be able to come, and I hate that even more. I’m really sorry.
We’ll be having this meetup on Friday, July 29th at 7PM in Biwa (Les Berges du Lac) (More Details), and right after it I think we should start organizing for the next meetup to be sometime in the middle of August.
This way these 2 summer meetups are close and whoever can’t make it to one can make it to the other 🙂
Adib is suggesting we have a meetup in Kelibia soon, which I think is a really cool idea. Anyway, I know that not all bloggers have cars, so if you guys are interested we can try and organize it so that we can meet in one place and then all go together in the available cars.
We’ll talk about this more in this Friday’s meetup and when organizing the next one.
Another suggestion I have is to set a certain day in the month to be the default meetup date, so that it’s known in advance when the meetup will be and we don’t have to go through this whole date choosing thing time and again. For example, something like the 4th Sunday of the month at 7PM.
What do you guys think?
Anyway, as this meetup is on really short notice, I’d truly appreciate it if you could help promote it through your blogs, through telling the bloggers you know directly, or anyway that you can.
Thank you all. I can’t wait to see you all this Friday 🙂
