I would have loved to meet you because you are doing a lot of interesting things with your sites! Barbara - great resource! I've signed up to get local meetups and its interesting to see what meetings people are pulling together. For those that are curious, its free and easy to use.

You are so right...Building relationships online is great, but eventually you are going to want to meet and build community face to face. Meetup (www.meetup.com) is a great way to organize a group online and then arrange regular in person meetings. They offer a broad range of meeting categories and if you don't like what you see, you can start your own group. Jason.

The front desk person did not know about any meetings. Since the light was good, I took some <a href="http://yintercept.blogspot.com/2007/02/dusk-photos.html" rel="nofollow">photos of Mimi's Cafe</a>. <a href="http://protophoto.com/picture.html?pic=11452" rel="nofollow">This one</a> looks like a Thomas Kincaid painting (with a sedan parked in front).

Please! It's the only Thursday I'm not booked in March. Wish I was there. Hope it was fun! Your blog is so well done - you live what you teach too. I've heard of other blogging groups getting together and being disappointed but I think we have a group of amazing people here. I think a few hours with you and Rob and the world's problems would be totally solved. Or at least it would feel that way ;) Best, Janet Next one March 22? Please!
