A location convenient to everyone is not possible in the Atlanta Region. Top-end Perimeter seems to be the most logical spot and I’m trying that this time. We’ll see what happens. By getting a little closer to everyone but really close to no one does anyone show? Hope to see you there.

Nice post Bob and completely agreed on why we should network – not just for jobs, but to share and improve our lives. One of the things that keeps me (and others) from networking face-to-face more is too many commitments and shortages of time – probably one of the reasons why LinkedIn and Facebook have become so popular, as it shortens the time requirement (for better or worse).

I’ll have to read the entire thing later…I just read the first paragraph and had to LOL b/c I’ve often thought the same thing…where would we hold a get together that would be a good location for everyone? Let me know if you come up with a good answer! My thoughts were Perimeter though. It seems pretty central. Although I don’t know if I’m on your invite list. : )
