Kolkata Bloggers Meet 09 - The K-factor rocked

Sorry guys, me being the usual late latiff is posting this blog a week later than it was scheduled for. I regret it, honestly. But since now I am writing this blog, I should better get to the point fast. So here goes:

A Kolkata Bloggers Meet was organised last week on 8th August by www.webreps.in and www.indusnetacademy.net together. This was the first ever bloggers meet that I visited. And to tell the truth I was surprised. Surprised not because of the crowd (a crowd is always expected given to the fact that people are so informed these days) but because the immense insight I got about the web industry. Honestly speaking, I am a laymen when it comes to technical stuff of things. I know that I have to click 'Publish Post' and my blog will be up there. Any thing more than that and I am in trouble. Oh! Forgot to add that this event was held in CCD in Salt Lake Sector V, the one below the RDB Cinemas. Now some pictures:

This guy gave a presentation on some trends of blogging and why we need blogging etc. Sorry I forgot his name. But I loved his presentation. Specially his witty inserts in the middle of coversations. You rocked Mr.

There was another guy who presentation I liked. I remember his name but I dont have his picture. Irony isn't it? His name was Abhishek Rungta and he gave a presentation on 'Monetisation of Blogs'. Now thats something I know nothing of. You can see it. I have no ads on my blog! But I liked what he said. It was all new for me.

Some fellow Kolkata (or was it only Kolkatans?) bloggers listening intensely to the speakers. I guess they were enjoying it too. Its clearly visible on their face isn't it?

Arun Agarwal (Finally, I have both the picture and the name together) gave a presentation on 'Reputation Management'. As usual I didn't knew much about it. But I liked what he said. I guess he is a man with great knowledge of the web industry and what companys or individuals can do with it. I liked him throughout the whole presentation.

And now the best part (It ain't over till its over right?)

They gifted all the bloggers something that I never expected.
