Kuwait Bloggers Meet-up

YES it is

I wish to really have this one good meet-up... specially for those who has their progressing blogs

well i would day it should be like a secret among them,or else they will be stalked by other people.

there are two types of bloggers out there; those that hide behind nicknames and aliases, and those that write under their real names, with their real addresses, phone numbers etc.

Depending on which group you belong to, u may not want other people knowing who you are.

me personally, run a Google search and i'll come up, as I am i even use the same nickname on every website, cept this one, apparently it was taken (stupid young me must have registered a long time ago, and i forgot about it )

there are plenty of bloggers gatherings going on DIG, i suggest u use twitter to scope them out more bloggers on there than here.

I know there are tons of bloggers in Kuwait since I got my initial info about this place on those blogs. Anyway if there would be a meet up there should be a theme to talk about..probably like a seminar, workshop or whatever so you can encourage people to join.

I would certainly entertain meeting everyone... It sounds like a good place to make some friends.. just I work all the time and so far I haven't been able to make a meeting. Please make it in the evening like 7:30-8ish time frame.

yeah im in ,,,,,,,,,,,,i was writing all these years in nick name as legacy said,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i would like to meet others ,,,,,,,

i just started blogging :3 so i would mind joining in to get more tips and learning from other people

ok i am down for that, i'm a blogger, and im pro meeting other bloggers!

the most important thing in becoming a blogger (write this down @Salue ) is to bring something ORIGINAL to the blogosphere!

im tired of blogs where peeps just repost news as is, as if i cant get it off BBC or HuffingtonPost myself? come on people!

And oh, English please

Btw SCG time request is fine by me, so now we have a time, and the date would be better served as friday, where everyone is off, or thursday, wednesday, monday.

anyone to finalize? we're almost there, we just need someone to put the time and date together

Haa nice reply kinda agree with you

Check out my blog ksalue.blogspot.com

I'd love some pointers!

And as legacy said, give out time and date and people will be there, i'd say weekend? Day time for less traffic and people meeting place marina mall consdering the elweather is good or the hangout cafe in salmyia, salmyia best place to meet at its like the downtwon of kuwiat?

Good idea
let me know if some thing is decided

im also in .,.............

Sounds like a good idea, I'd be interested as well as I just started a blog.

It is a very good idea.
I have been in Kuwait for about 2 years now with my little family (wife and son) and we have no friends at all.Social communication here is very difficult and the diversity of people's origins and backgrounds makes it very hard to understand them and socialize.
It would be great if we can arrange a gathering (persons and families ) in a certain place to get known to each other and have fun, enjoing the outdoors and give a chance for kids to know each others and play together. i thing this gonna help many of us.
Let's give a try.

I think it would be great because so many of us are good people from all walks of life even if you very little english or a little Arabic we can work it out so all single people women and men and family members we can make a difference and help other people to open up. .

since the numbers are bound to be HUGE, i suggest a place that can encompass such a large gathering, say, Marina Beach? ud be within walking distance of coffee shops galore, as well as have enough open space to sit and talk without the need to reserve chairs etc.

in business studies back in highschool i read about a coffee shop somewhere in the world called "imaginary", u go in and are given empty glasses and plates, and u pay something like $5 on weekdays, $10 on week ends. if ur really famished they'll give u water. the proprietor discovered that people do not eat or drink in coffee shops they are only there for the socialising. so, socialise away from food

Lets finalise this issue and lets when and where to meet

Alrite Guys!

how was the meeting tho fun ?

and check out my blog www.ksalue.blogspot.com

tell me what u think >..>

how's the meet-up last Friday guys, any pictures?

Guys...
I think it's time for another meet-up!
I wasn't able to be at the last one... but I would really like to meet some people from here and all over the world! Takers?

I'm in.

Present!

Great... I admit... I don't know too much here.. but I guess we could all meet somewhere and have dinner or even just coffee.

Possable Where:
1.) Anyone like Japanese food? There is Benihana at Avenues that I think would be a good environment for both entertainment and food. Though it is a little pricey. But I am open for suggestions. Man I wish there was even the slightest hint of a bar here...(wishful thinking)

2.) Golf anyone? Before it gets too hot! I'm not a big golfer or anything having only played like 5 times in my life... but I think it's a good to get outside and it has a lot of time to socialize

Possable When:
  Sat. March 31st  Totally open for suggestions here though too!

Other factors:
Everyone's budget. Mine personally doesn't have one. But we can't all be so lucky right?

Everyone's schedule. At the moment, I'm working night shift from 11pm to 7am. I'll worry about sleep when I'm dead so up for just about anything during the day.

I look forward to this!
Thoughts and suggestions welcomed!!!

Hmm, i think Benihana has been ostracized as a result of their "law suit" against one of Kuwait's top bloggers, what would u say to Kuwaiti food? A bit of local tradition, theres a great restaurant who's name I forget out in Salmiya, its the last right before the signal on the gulf road, before the scientific center.

Golf,, i've never played that one :S how about soap soccer out on the Gulf?

In terms of timings, i like the way u think I'll rest when im dead. early morning gives less traffic and smaller queues, hence its opportune. + its best to enjoy the mornings before they become too hot to handle!

Could it be March 31st 10am?


About place you guys decide where is best..

I know nothing of a law suit, but if it's not good for you… that's ok. A would kind of like to go to place where we can sit outside… while it's still nice out. Especially if we do it at 10am as diarynigracia suggested.

I'm surprised you have never played golf. Then perhaps we could just go to the driving range and hit some balls… very good for releaving stress. And it's eaqually good for getting us all outside. You'd be surprised how much fun it is.  I have no idea what soap soccer is, but I'm guessing it's a joke?

10 is fine for me… but we have find something that is open at this hour… unless we are just looking at a coffee shop?

Who else there....
