Metroblogging San Francisco

Metroblogging San Francisco is a local collective of bloggers who post news, information and commentary about the Bay Area on a daily basis. They recently passed their 1 year anniversary, so to celebrate they are hosting a Drink-Up this Friday, August 5th at the House of Shields in San Francisco starting at 7pm. So come on out and meet the folks that make SF Metblogs such a great local resource. Here’s more info.

Metroblogging was founded in Los Angeles by Sean Bonner and Jason DeFillippo and has now spread to over 30 different cities worldwide. Sean heads up blogging.la and Jason (who’s birthday we are celebrating on Friday as well) recently moved to San Francisco and joined forces with Christiana Dominguez who runs SF Metblogs. Several other friends of Laughing Squid contribute to SF Metblogs, including: Jacob Appelbaum, Christiana Dominguez, Nicole Lee, Jonas Luster, Courtney Patubo, Derek Powazek and Jason Schupp

Congratulations guys and here’s to another year of excellent SF Metblog posts!

Actually, Christiana runs the SF Metblog and cracks the whip. I’m the man behind the curtain who never has time to post :-) Hope you can make it out. It’s going to be a great time and I’m sure we’re gonna close the place.

Thanks for the clarification Jason. I’ve modified my post to mention that CD runs the show.
