Jan 30, 2015 is one of the precious day of my blogging career. This was the first bloggers meet I ever attended till now. It was Indiblogger Meet powered by Asus. This also the first bloggers meet of this year from IndiBlogger.
As I mentioned earlier, as it was my first blogger meet, I was not having any idea how the event will be. The meet started 30 minutes later than the scheduled time. It started with music concert and some activity to meet the other bloggers. It was well planned and well managed event.
As mentioned this event is powered by Asus. The product manager of Asus, described the features of the newly launched EeeBook 205 and Asus All in one PC ET2040. Asus EeeBook 205 I already own it and made a review on it. You can read on that in my post Asus EeeBook 205 Review. I got a fair hands on experience on Asus All in one PC ET2040. Thanks to David, product manager Asus. He answered all my queries regarding the EeeBook as well as the Asus All in One PC.
Then there was a group activity. The activity included showcasing a theme on stage with a group which promotes the blogging. Each team was provided with different themes. It was a good activity as it helped make more contacts with other bloggers.
Overall it was a great event for me. I never expected a such a well managed event. I got an opportunity to meet many bloggers and share the ideas with them. Many of them provided very valued suggestions. On the lighter note, I was little disappointed for not getting a IndiBlogger T-shirt.
