KOMO TV Blogger Meetup

So...I got a little got a little invite in my inbox today...

KOMO-TV and its owner, Fisher Communications, has graciously agreed to serve as host for a blogger meet-up at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday August 2nd. The event will be at Fisher Plaza, 140 Fourth Avenue North in downtown Seattle. Light hors d'oeuvres and refreshments (alcoholic and otherwise) will be served and everyone who attends is promised a cool piece (or pieces) of KOMO swag. That's right; we're digging deep for this.

This is a social event, so come prepared to meet and make new friends. If you know of a local blogger who's not on the list here, please let me know or feel free to invite them, too. We'd like to meet everybody.

If you don't already know me, I'm Chris Pirillo - coffee addict, Seattlite, and a regular ol' blogger who also has a YouTube channel. If you have any questions about this event, feel free to contact Leanne Dillon from KOMO-TV at (206) 404-6055.

KOMO-TV is interested in getting to know bloggers in the area, and what better way to do that than with a little party? Again, this is a social event; there's no agenda for the station other than helping facilitate this meet-up. Fisher Communications recognizes the significance of the personal media revolution, and they want to listen and pay attention to what you're saying. I think this is a good way to start.

KOMO-TV news anchors will be there, so don't forget to bring your camera! You'll also be able to take pictures of yourself (and your co-anchors) at the anchor desk.

Please use the RSVP function of this Evite to let us know if you're coming. We want to make sure we have enough food for everybody.

We should all use "komomeetup" as the tag for photos, videos, blog posts, etc.

Anyone planning on attending?

1 Yea, I got that along with Sarah. She can't come but I'm interested. Wanna carpool? Maybe we'll meet Steve Pool. And if it's warm enough take a dip after in a pool. A how about playing pool? OK, I'm done.

2 Apparently Tacomamama is not on that radar yet. At least, I like to look at it that way.

3 Hey Kevin, I would totally be down with carpooling. Frinklin will be attending the USS Mariner Rainer Party that night, so I've got plenty of room. Jen? You can go as my guest if you would like. You're invited too, per the invite as a blogger that he's not familiar with, yet. Does Jesse Jones work for KOMO? I want to meet him, just for his sign off. He always gets the best stories.

4 I will take you up on that then, RSVP me as your guest. I'd love to carpool with someone if there's room.

5 Wow - had to edit that comment. It freaked out a bit on me. I've RSVP'd us Jen. We can take my Subaru Tribeca. Plenty of room for Kevin, you and me and another couple of people if they want to come...we can do a Tacoma group!

6 Definitely -- thanks for volunteering your vehicle. I'll be sure to chip in a few bucks for gas. I think I'll send an email out to any FeedTacoma contributors to see if there's anymore interest. Would it be totally nerdy/over-the-top for us to all get t-shirts or something made? Anyone know a good place for that around here?

7 There's a place by the Tacoma Dome Station that has signage about custom t-shirts. I've never used them, though.
