As I was waiting for you in the restaurant my thoughts were about how will I recognize you since we didn't agree on some method of identification. That was the least of my concerns. What would we talk about? Was one. No problem. We bloggers are revealing ourselves as we post and comment.

Those who scorn blogging don't know what they are missing.

I haven't yet met any bloggers but have met internet friends (where we originally met through chat rooms) and it's always been good. I don't rush to do it, get to know someone first, be sure we are looking for the same thing but so far the 10 internet friends I have met have all been exactly as I expected.
