My first Raleigh Bloggers meetup

Last night I went to my first Raleigh Bloggers Meetup at Cafe Cyclo. Had a great time talking to cool new people about podcasting, using Audacity, social networking sites and more. I also got links to several new blogs you should check out, including a new local music blog:


taprootradio.com
-- Specializing in roots rock, alt.country, deep blues and early soul. The blooger is local, but the music isn't.

joshstaiger.org/ -- Personal blog of Josh Staiger. He also heads up the Meetup.

jacksonfox.org -- A blog about interface design for Web developers

webdevradio.com -- Podcast on Web development

rollerweblogger.org Open source blog server

ryanirelan.com -- Personal and professional blog. Ryan also runs Podcast Free America, which offers advice and information for podcasters of all skill levels.

I also got word today of another Raleigh-based music blog, hickorywind.org, which, as you might expect, is devoted to Americana.

Hi Karen. It was great meeting you (again) and I hope you'll come on back. Just a small correction: you linked to the project blog for the Roller software that I work on. My personal blog is Blogging Roller.
