Tonight about 40 of us attended a Blogger Dinner at Taste of the Himalayas, a Nepali restaurant in Berkeley. It was too noisy to hear and too cramped to move arounnd. Steve Gillmor walked in, couldn’t find a seat, and walked out. I had interesting conversations with half a dozen people, a disappointingly small number for one of these events. Most folks were from Berkeley or Oakland. Scott Beale kidded that he hailed from the West Bay (AKA San Francisco). Steve Hill maintains a beautiful cycling/travel site.
Was this a Blogger Dinner or a Geek Dinner? Sylvia Paull, who hosts Berkeley’s weekly Geek Breakfast and hosts occasional Nerd Walks, seemed to prefer Blogger Dinner, so that is how I will refer to it. In the comments appended to the event announcement, I asked, “Is Berkeley becoming the epicenter of the blogosphere?” to which someone immediately responded, “It already is.”

Flashback to the Sixties. I just visited Zigtag but mistakenly entered Zigzag .
