Seattle Weblog Meetup Report
Last Wednesday was the January Seattle Weblog Meetup. The meetups in November and December were smaller than usual, and attendance has been down generally since last Summer, so it was nice to see so many people there this time.

Not only were many of the regulars there, but there were a couple of new faces and some people we haven't seen in a while. (I was especially happy to see John and Mikey.) My grandson was well behaved, and even played a little with Eric Soroos' son. Conversations ran the usual gamut of subjects and, as usual, I found myself doing some major geeking out with other programmers.

As I promised, we brought a cake for Ben Franklin's birthday. Everyone seemed to have a good time, and most of the cake was eaten. It was a good meetup.

If you are a Seattle local and a blogger you should come to the next one! Eastside meetups are on the first Tuesday of the month at the Crossroads food court in Bellevue on 156th, Seattle meetups are on the third Wednesday of the month at Ralph's grocery on 4th.
