The First Official Epiblogger Meetup
By Rhett Soveran • Apr 20th, 2008 • Category: News
Do you like my fancy Photoshop work? You see, a good marketing strategy is to have a picture with many people in it so that others will think we are a big company and they will trust us and give us money!
Epiblogger isn’t just two people, it’s four people… right.
Being that Lee lives in Saskatchewan and I live in Alberta we generally don’t get together for tea everyday. Luckily, Lee has family in Calgary and so, from time-to-time, he comes to visit. Frankly, I have no reason to go to Rosthern (few do). I called this the first official because Lee came to town once before and we got together, but at that time Epiblogger was just an idea. Prior to that, if you didn’t know, I hadn’t seen Lee since the summer of 2003 (I think?) when I was a camp counsellor and he was my boss.
After you get over our good looks, you might notice our shirts. Mine is from Uneetee.com (which we are currently advertising) and Lee’s is the coolest/dorkiest shirt I’ve seen in a while—it actually blinks and shows if there is a WIFI connection in the area (I think from ThinkGeek.com, most likely).
Lee and I sat at Starbucks, discussed the future of Epiblogger and came to the conclusion that we are both happy with the response so far and are invested to push forward and see how far we go. Other than that, this was just an opportunity to post our pictures and let you know where we are at.


What kind of Starbucks did you have? I like a Venti Americano with an extra shot (I know, I tend to be suicidal with my espresso).
The only other time I was involved in any kind of meet-up is when the University of Calgary was doing a study on blogging and I was invited. However, I was more of a lab-rat in that situation.
