BlogFest is a quarterly social happy hour type thing. People who read each others’ blogs talk, drink, eat, hang out. Always fun. – Cindy, co-founder of Pittsburgh Bloggers
Pghbloggers.org is a social organization dedicated to bringing localbloggers together, online and in person. The Pittsburgh blog community will next meet in person for Blogfest 16.

The scene
Blogfests are always a friendly atmosphere open to anyone, blogger or not. I’ve been to a couple this year though I (Anthony) only started blogging weeks ago. Besides, let’s face it, everyone has a Facebook or Myspace page.
You don’t know about Facebook, Myspace, or any other social media brand? Blogfest is the perfect place to ask around. There are no silly questions, this community is geeked up about getting anyone informed and involved. God bless.
Witness the history
Blogfest 16 will be a big night for Bricks and Boxes. To my memory, I’ve never met Jennie. Thus far we’ve passed like ships in the night.
Jennie and I are going nuts about the collaborative potential of this newborn site. We know we’re clever as shit and we want to do amazing things for you. We’re also smart enough to recognize your input is critical. Be there Friday, keep us on point, and witness the secret historic bonus.
Note: Already have an opinion about B&B? Bring it. Don’t wait for Friday, drop us a note.

hopefully you develop a better audience than what’s in the photo.
