I attended the New Delhi Steemit Meet today

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

So this was New Delhi's first official #Steemit meet and was long overdue - after all, this is the CAPITAL of India :-D

@firepower finally announced the dates a few days back and the big surprise was the turnout

Over 42 Steemians came for the meet

I had only interacted with all these guys (and gals) online and it was awesome to see them in real. Had a great time chatting with people - from @shantonil to @amank (who is also @justa) - man, you are a great person to follow on Quora and senior members like @aishwarya

@steemflow - you are doing a great job for the community buddy
@wandereronwheels - kudos for all that running around
@shenoy - finally met up - can't wait to see the video. DONOT edit me out :P
@hungryhustle - nice seeing you in person
@thatindianlady / @nimik / @neelamgahlyan : Great to see the ladies ruling it up at Steemit too. Thanks for the quick chat Nimik!
@touringdiaries - glad to meet another biker at the event :)

Thanks for the intro video Bunny. I did go and met a few Steemians and thanks to your video I now know thr real names and not just user names.

Hey buddy, nice talking to you today! Cool blog you've got there. :)

This was an amazing blog ! Perfect for everyone that attended the meetup ! Resteeming this post so that everyone could see how good and successful our Delhi meetup was :D

Zanks a lot :)

Hey that's was a great meet I wanted to come but due to prior commitments,I can't make up better luck next time.

Well while viewing the introduction video I came across an idea of there should be something for our Indian friends to catch up with each other on steem.
like there is an common introduceyourself tag on Steem there should be one for indian community specially.what u say
Regards @crafter

Looking at organizing another official / unofficial meet soon!
Also, some of us are using the tag 'indiaunited' for our posts. Do check

Woah! That was quick. :O
Nice meeting you in person. :)

Same to same bro - some day we can probably have a ride/drive meet to Himachal

Hello bunny sir! It was great meeting you today! :)
PS: Sitting behind @himshwetha, wearing grey!

Oops, it's @himshweta!

Noted - and added to the list in the original post

Bunny sir you added her without me! Lol

Bingo - recognized you

Cool! :P

Hey bunny,
It was really nice meeting you and each one of you are awesome!
P.S It's I answering questions of @shenoy in the picture :)

Awesome - have added your name in the original post :)

Thanks a lot for adding my name @bunnypunia :D

It was really nice meeting you @bunnypunia. I thoroughly enjoyed the session today. I tried to talk to as many people as I could but one day is never enough. Hope to meet you guys very soon. I am in!

I will write a post tomorrow, for sure and explain my experience of today's event. Cheers buddy! 🍻

Looking forward to your post!

Thanks for the post sir😃
It was really great meeting you😊

@bunnypunia sir it was great meeting you

Same to same

GREAT MEET UP

Yep - good turnout and great people

It was Good moment i think 🤔

Wow..Lots of people from Delhi!!!

Makes me remember the song "Yeh hai dilli meri jaan"

Hi @bunnypuia, I​ was also present at the event. Think we could not interact.​Missed the chance . Hope to see you soon in the next meetup.

Yes - next time for sure. And adding your name in the original post

Yup!!! Thx a lot for adding my name

Amazing, it is always nice to meet people in person and get to know about them. Events like this will connect more Steemians and eventually one day we may have SteemFest in India! 42 is a good number, during the Mangalore meetup we were discussing that in Delhi atleast 40-50 people would turn up. I hope one day we may have meetup in Leh Ladakh :)

That is a rough idea - to have the world's highest Steemit meet - someday!

Hey, Thanks a lot man. Felt really good meeting you and others, and I appreciate your efforts for this post.
See ya around and be in touch ! :D

See you at the next one

Was nice seeing you too, Cheers!
