Those of you who follow Becca from 25toFly and Jen from Sips of Jen and Tonic know that there has been some serious buzz about a blogger meetup going on for the past few months. The event was proposed, locations and dates were thrown out, and a vote was taken. Excitement ensued.
For those of you who are unfamiliar, the idea for an event like this came about after we kept seeing blog posts detailing meet ups between individual bloggers. That got us to wondering if there was a way to get all of our favorite people in the same place at the same time. It was then we decided to create a larger event to help more bloggers connect beyond their URLs.
In honor of the awesomeness of this event, we decided to give Blogger Summit (formerly Blogger Meetup) a major makeover, and are excited to announce the launch of the official Blogger Interactive site!
We created this space to house all information and updates regarding our first annual event in Austin, TX this October 25-27th. This is where attendees and supporters can come to keep updated on the who, what, when, where, and how of the big weekend. We also want to use this space to showcase our lovely participants; get acquainted through our forums, and give us suggestions and feedback on what you want to see at Blogger Interactive 2013 and future Blogger Interactive events.
This event is completely open to all bloggers, prospective bloggers, and friends and supporters of bloggers everywhere. Our attendee list is growing, but there is no cut off for the number of people who can attend. Just be sure to RSVP through our official E-vite so that we have an estimate of the number of people who plan on hanging out with us in Austin.
Don’t forget to:
- Follow this blog (either through WordPress or by e-mail)
- Fan us on Facebook
- Follow us on Twitter
- Show your support by grabbing the Blogger Interactive badge from the sidebar, and sharing it on your site
Check out our Event Details page for information and updates on lodging suggestions, and tentative itinerary plans. Feel free to leave comments or shoot us an e-mail through our Contact page for questions and/or suggestions, or if you are interested in getting involved as an official sponsor of Blogger Interactive.
Welcome again, and thanks for helping us make this the go-to blog event this year. We can’t wait to meet all of you!

Got my flight down. Hotel suggestions ?
There are some already on the Event Details page, but we will be posting more on these suggestions soon. We will let you all know where Jen and I will be and have an itinerary out soon as well.
will there be three-legged races? if so, can i enter myself?
Should be epic! Good luck!
Are you gonna go?! The only answer is YES.
Then unfortunately, I don’t have an answer. There are too many outside forces keeping me away, I’m afraid.
Sadsies! You’ll be missed.
Trust me, I’ll be there in spirit!
Any chance you guys will ever come out to Australia?
It’s possible mate. The future potential of BI is boundless!
The site looks fan-forking-tastic. Seriously, you guys killed it! I’m really excited to see this whole thing evolve. I think it’s gonna be huge \m/
Thanks Chowderhead! Glad to have you on board!
I didn’t read anything about an open bar or maybe punch and pie? Will there be punch and pie?
How about we buy you a pie flavored cocktail, and no one gets punched?
Love this response.
I’m not signing anything about not punching anyone
Aww man, I wish I wasn’t a billion miles away and a broke ass writer!
I really hope this year’s event goes well and that you guys can build from there 🙂 I’d love to make it one year, I really wanna visit Austin!
Rohan.
Rohan, get your readers to start a coin jar fund for you! We’d love to see you there this year of course, but you can definitely bet on future BI plans that will be more accessible to more bloggers!
Because I know everyone is dying to know, I haven’t RSVP’d yet, but I haven’t ruled it out either. I am sitting on some vacation time…
Oh, you didn’t know? You’re expected to do a modern dance number during the opening ceremonies.
I have 3 months to learn to dance. What’s this twerking thing all the kids are doing these days…

I so wish I could go Jen. I hope there will be a future one closer for me. What a great idea and you and Rebecca are doing a fabulous job with it. 🙂 I know it will be a huge success.
We’re really bummed you won’t be able to make it, but we understand. Maybe next year?
Sounds like a fun event
It should be! Definitely try and make it if you can. It’s like being at the weirdest house party ever.
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
We’re excited too! Sad you won’t be able to be there, but maybe next year?
I just realized I was stuck on the word “awesome” 🙂
I know I’ll meet you all sooner than later. Fingers crossed for next year!
