Some Cool New Press

UPDATED 06/20/2007 new update the articles came out. I think both were pretty darn cool. So fare in DC alone we got about 500 new members this month most of it related to the article. This is great news as it means more people will meet up with some friends and by this time next year maybe met someone they will call a life long friend. Life is strange that way you never know what turn you will take that could change your life for ever.

WASHINGTON POST
BUSINESS WEEK


Wow looks like the MEETin press circuit is heating up again. last week I was contacted by a really nice Washington post reporter for the style section. She wanted to do an article on meetin. We did an hour interview near my work and then she headed over to visit members at a typical event ( Romel's rock climbing ). I think the article should come out in the next week or so.

That being said I was just contacted by BusinessWeek a magazine I have been reading since i was 16 to do an article. How sweet. I told them I was a huge fan and would be honored. I guess they are doing an article on social networks in general.

Man I we still do not have a press kit. We need to get one some day. I guess press just has not been something we have ever looked for. I do wonder like what press is to much press. How could it change MEETin? would it be a good thing or a bad thing. keeping MEETin a grass roots thing is very important but on the flip side if more people find out about it and they too are looking for friends who are we to say no.

Anyways it will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

UPDATE: 06/05/07 Got an interview tonight with a reporter from BusinessWeek at 5pm. How sweet ya. I love that
