Notes from the Chapel Hill Blog Together meet-up

Comments[0] by Dave in Blogging

Anton posted some notes about the first Chapel Hill Blog Together meet-up. It was held Wednesday at the tiny Caffe Driade, a bunker in the woods off of Franklin Street that has been converted in to a cute little coffee bar.

It was really cool to meet a bunch of very enthusiastic bloggers from my hometown. These folks are revved up about using blogs for important things like community activism, social change, and health care. Yes, health care. I met a new Roller user: Bernard Glassman of the National Cancer Research Institute is using Roller as part of a project to help patients share experiences and educate each about treatment options.

As Justin said, "what an excellent cross-section of the community." Inspirational, even. Chapel Hill is a 35 mile drive for me, but I'll be back.
