Oxford Bloggers Meeting

Running a blog, and reading and commenting on other people's blogs, a sense gradually builds up of the character of some of the people encountered more regularly in the course of doing these things, and an inquisitiveness about what it'd be like to encounter these people in a different setting can grow. So there's a certain irony in that the first physical encounter I have with people known through their online presence is with people whose online presence was mostly, until I met them, unknown to me. I had fun, and we - how easily it is slip into collectivities - should do it again. Also, more blogs to read, but this time, interestingly, with some of the curiousity about the otherwise shadowy figures behind them satiated: Milan, Seth, Tony, Mike, and Andy. I of course knew Ben already.

Yes, a good time was--hopefully--had by all! I'm looking forward to the next one already.

It was good to meet you.

Was nice to meet you, Rob.

I think I need to check out more of the links Seth and Rob have about the place...
