Question: What do Amitabh Bachan, Aamir Khan and Jackie Shroff have in common?
Answer: Each has a Blog and now you can get talking to them!

We at IBNMS & DBNMS want to share this wonderful world of blogging with you and get you started with it!

IBNMS (Indian Blog and New Media Society) in collaboration with DBNMS (Delhi Blog and New Media Society) proudly present the first ever BlogCamp in Delhi! At the BlogCamp Delhi we will get together and discuss/rant/brain-storm/share opinions about blogging technologies & trends. We will cover micro blogging, photo-blogging, video blogging, social media - everything about the world of blogs & new media that interests us.

There will be opportunity to learn about the basics of blogging, attend hands on workshop on creating a new blog and meet like-minded people from the blogging world.

BlogCamps are different in that attendees are strongly encouraged to give a demo, a session, or help with one. If you are not being a speaker, you can help by taking notes of the event, blogging the event live, help to promote the event, or even helping with logistics.

If that got you excited, we will be meeting on 24th May 2008 (Saturday) at 9:30 AM. You will need to brave the Delhi traffic and reach the venue:

Microsoft Corp
5th Floor, Eros Towers
Nehru Place, New Delhi
