Since the last one was at Dadar, something further along the Western Suburbs would have been nice. What about the Lotus Cafe at the Marriott in Juhu? There’ll definately be space at that time of the afternoon, and it’ll be quiet as well.

I have always been tremendously curious about it. Whats with bloggers meet and coffee? Could it not be possible that bloggers actually prefer tea. Or may be some healthy fruit juice. Is it hep to be drinking coffee? Any urls explaining coffee for the coffee uneducated masses who want to be at a bloggers meet?

A URL doesn’t spring to mind, but you could try RK Narayan’s excellent essay on the subject. This is the book it is found in.

Curious,

There is no “qualification” needed for attending the Blogger’s meet. All intelligent souls are welcome, those who wish to come may well do so whether or not they are from Mumbai, whether or not they are Bloggers

All intelligent souls are welcome

That definitely sounds like a qualification to me. ;)

Madman,

Everybody perceives themselves to be intelligent these days. As a matter of fact if someone is a regular blogger he acquires somewhat of a right to think of himself as intelligent.

Not much of a qualification

Saket, buddy, you’re scaring people away.

Yazad, with no venue suggestions coming through except mine, it is up to you to take a call and announce a venue. Please be gentle, and do not settle on Thane.

Juhu too far. Marriott too expensive. Let's either keep it at Phoenix Mills Barista or at the Regal Barista in town. And those averse to coffee shops please note that the recently concluded very successful (21 bloggers!) Bangalore Blogger Meet was held in a Barista.

in town? in town? IN TOWN? (this means I am agitated) - I live in vashi, people - and I have been fighting the inertia and mentally preparing for a trip out of vashi on sunday - so do not discriminate on such demographic counts (such as convenience of those living in the Western suburbs alone)
