Finally after a long long time, Some one thought to plan a bloggers meet up in Islamabad and surprisingly this time, it was not Baddar :). Marketing Team of Telenor Islamabad took this initiative. Arrangements were made in the Cafeteria of their F-11 Building. A levish tiled floor, multimedia, fancy lights and laughters of young Bloggers and Entrepreneur made the evening more refreshing.
There were many fimiliar faces like Saad Hamid, Amir Atta, Owais, Ahsan Mukhtar, Alam and met many new like Salman, Zeeshan and Raheel.
It started around 6:15 pm, with a motivational and inspirational video by Telenor. After that Raheel who was also kind of a host [:P] invited all the bloggers to come turn by turn and introuduce themselves and their Blogs. Saad started with Sizlopedia, then Amir with Propakistani, myself with Saday-e-Pakistan, Owaeis with Babu's Notes, Ahsan with Listphobia, Alam with Pakiology and Zeeshan with his interesting experience with Blogging and Social Networking Sites. He even offered his Customised packages to the young bloggers :P
On behalf of Islamabad Bloggers, i really want to thank Marketing Team of Telenor[Raheel, Meher, Faheem, their manager and the guy whom i met somewhere and then forgot his name :P]. It was great to know them and rest of the bloggers. Superb work and Keep in touch!!
Owais wasnt there was he ?
ReplyDeleteDamn he tricked me ...
No he was Owaeis with nick name Waisy Babu :) , the one from gidMid and The Gadgets was missing :P. May be he was scared of being kidnapped :P
ReplyDeleteNot to be a spoil sport but the spelling my name is: Awais Imran and my nickname: Waisybabu.
ReplyDeletePeople misspell it all the time.
But yes, I had a great time. Wonderful event. A big success and a fun one at that.

ReplyDeleteAnd lastly, babu's note's is dead. artsyHANDS is in! :D
Awais ,sorry for that, actually Awais Naseer Kiyani spell it this way at Twitter, so i thought may be this is how it is :) Anyways, good to see you there and your inspirations and sufferings [:P] were to entertaining :)
ReplyDeleteJust checked it , i missed the pics :( - yeah it was a great event no doubt :)
ReplyDeleteYeah Keyani saab's name is quite unique. :P
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't call them sufferings as much as I'd call them obstacles/hurdles. Everyone faces them at the start and I'm learning the ropes rather quickly :D
No doubt, you are too young and the work you are doing is mature enough to beat such impressions . Keep it up!
