It was a great opportunity to catch up with some REAL LIFE professional Bloggers, Darren Rowse of Digital Photography School fame and Yaro Starak the BlogMasterMind!

I extended the invitation to a client of mine, who shares an interest in Blogging and Internet Marketing.Top10System’s, Tony Barlow, whose slogan is “Software not Menswear” :{) came along as my “Wingman” to drinks with the probloggers.

We were both excited and curious to be face-to-face with such online-successes but were pleasantly surprised to find everyone was really down-to-earth, approachable, friendly and insightful.

Both Darren and Yaro were keen to learn about everyone’s ventures and generously passed on a couple of hints and tips.

The evening was also a great opportunity to mingle and make some new acquaintances. Obviously, like any business – networking is simply part of a Bloggers success.

You never know who you are going to meet? It could be your next JV partner, or simply someone who has that final piece to the puzzle, you have been racking your brain over! Regardless, it is always interesting to discover what weird and wacky things others are blogging about and to also share the challenges and highlights of your experiences.

Thanks Darren for giving up your time to organize the get-together and share your insights; and to Yaro for the invite! It is always surreal when you meet your heroes and people you admire. Thanks for not disappointing me 🙂
