Last Saturday, about 10 community bloggers and assorted family members and B.com staff got together for coffee and conversation at our second bloggers' meetup.  If you haven't already, please check out possummomma's account of overcoming pre-meeting jitters to ultimately have a good time and BMWeerman's great photos of the event.

These events are just a small way for us to continue growing and building our community on- and off-line.  We may argue over points-of-view--even vehemently disagree over how we perceive and disagree with each other here, as a couple of our regulars were doing earlier today--but that doesn't make us any less connected, any less a community.  But the very nature of "community" is not static--it's always changing and growing.  As always, I invite your ideas about things we can do together, on- and -off-line, to continue this process <a href=mailto:jsperber@bakersfield.com>here</ a>.

But in the meantime, jot this down on your calendars!

What: B.com blogger meetup (drinks and snacks on us!)

When: Sat. May 19, 2007, from 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Where: Dagny's Coffee Company (20th and Eye Streets downtown)

Let us know if you're coming <a href=mailto:jsperber@bakersfield.com>here</ a>.

And if you're not already getting our n-gage e-newsletter every Thursday, sign up here to keep up with what's going on, including profiles of your neighbors!
