Blog Brunch - and a Bloggers' Brunch

Brunch is, possibly, my favorite meal of the day: it's an excuse to eat decadently and drink champagne at a disrespectful hour.  What could be better?


Therefore, for those of you who are new to this party, I'd like to introduce you to Blog Brunch, a wonderful network of bloggers at every stage in their blogging careers who gather on Twitter on the first Saturday of every month at 1pm EST to discuss relevant issues facing the ever-growing community.  The last meetup was about sponsorship and monetizing and a recap of the conversation can be found here; we'll be talking about personal projecs on 3 March.  Make sure you join in with #blogbrunch!

Even more excitingly, the brilliant minds behind Blog Brunch are going to be taking their initiative live!  They want to plan real brunches where bloggers will be able to meet over a meal to discuss the issues they're tackling and their secrets to success - it'll be an amazing platform for networking, both professional and social, and a fun way to learn more about this expanding medium and to get to know the faces behind your favorite local blogs.

I'm obviously angling for a brunch in London, but make sure to vote for your city no matter where you live!

(P.S. If you live in/near London, make sure you holler at Beantown Prepster, who has already organized an actual brunch for bloggers in town for 4 March.  This girl is a trailblazer!  See you there.)
