# 2nd Israeli Blogger\\Geek Dinner - a success

By Roy Osherove June 30, 2004 In [Blogging](https://osherove.com/blog/category/blogging)

**Historical article** · Originally published June 30, 2004; technical details may be outdated.

It's been a while, I know. but I've been busy with stuff that actually \*pays\* :)

The 2nd Ever Geek/Blogger Dinner was a success.

In attendence were :

- [Omer Van Kloeten](http://weblogs.asp.net/OKloeten/) \- The diligent young blogger who helped in arranging the meet up place, making calls and reserving places. Thanks Omer!
- [Ido Samuelson](http://dotnetjunkies.com/WebLog/principal/)
- [Avner Kashtan](http://weblogs.asp.net/avnerk)
- [Ohad Israeli](http://weblogs.asp.net/israelio) (which has been busy posting some great content on his blog!)
- Shmulik Primes

For the geeks who cancelled at the last momet - boohoo. You lost some great ultra-geek conversation. Plus a great dinner :) I'm thinking this should be a monthly thing. What do \*you\* think?

\[Update - I put Udi and Memi in there even though they were not there. Guess I'm just tired. And I got mixed up with the TDD workshop which I'll blog about later..\]
