Great Meeting The Oakland Blogging Community
It was really a lot of fun to meet Zennie, Hedera, Vsmoothe, Becks, the City Homesteader, Chris Kidd, and a host of other people - and thanks to the folks that took the time to organize it. The only downside is that now when I disagree with one of your posts I'll feel bad since I've met you in person. The venue (2022 Telegraph/The Ave) was great too. I hope we can do this again soon.

Report from Downtown Oakland #1
I was at the packed Cafe van Kleef last night (Friday) along with it seemed about a thousand other souls, and I had the good fortune of being able to talk to Peter van Kleef, whose bravery and quick-thinking is featured in Zennie's video from the night of the first protest. Peter thought it was funny that I had seen him on screen but never in person. According to Peter, these jostled pictures I took represent a regular Friday night:
End result: got my greyhound, heard very original live music, talked to some interesting people and had a great time. I'm going to get back down to SOBO for the 17th on 17th festival this afternoon. See you down there.

An Official Night Out?
Update: go here to see the people on Yelp who had this same idea. See you at Cafe van Kleef at 10pm.
I keep referring to Living in the O's post about patronizing Oakland businesses.
How about an official Night Out? Doesn't have to be anything fancy, just everybody pick a night and meet up somewhere, hit a restaurant, a couple bars, get to know your neighbors. Sounds like fun anyway. Being new to Oakland I'm open to suggestions about exactly where. Of course somebody else probably already thought of this, so please comment with the info so everyone knows where to go. We could wear a red dot on our shirts or something to identify us as Oakland-Night-Out folks.
Forward this to friends, neighbors, and coworkers!
