When I went to Word­Camp Dal­las, I met a lot of nice, tech-savvy peo­ple who enjoy blog­ging as much as I do.  I learned a lot about the blog­ging plat­form Word­Press, which I am using on this blog.  I had such a great expe­ri­ence, I wanted to bring some of that home to the Gulf Coast. 

The blog­gers in the Dal­las, TX, region even get together around once a month to hang out and have a good time with other blog­gers in the area.  Since I can’t drive to Dal­las once a month, I decided it would be a good idea to start a meetup group here on the Gulf Coast.  On Sep­tem­ber 11, I formed the Gulf Coast WordPress/Blogging Meetup group.

The rea­son I formed this group is the same rea­son other mee­tups have formed across the coun­try and around the world — to give blog­gers a chance to meet, col­lab­o­rate, and just have a great time with other blog­gers.  So, if you would be inter­ested in attend­ing this meetup, it’s being held on Octo­ber 25 at 7:00 p.m. at The Bak­ery Café in Mobile.  There’s only 14 slots, so go ahead and sign up!  It’ll be a great expe­ri­ence, I promise.

I look for­ward to meet­ing you there!
