On December 19^th, among jolly patrons and bright lights at the lively Madison Avenue Pub, the Toronto Bloggers celebrated their fifth meetup.

Eleven Toronto Bloggers’ members were able to make the December meeting between holiday shopping and prepping for time off work. Some of the members included Emmanuel Lopez (a.k.a. Motivatorman), Mauricio Osegueda of The Quarto, Apollo Media’s very own, Luciano Sampaio (a.k.a. The Code Master), Damien Van Vroenhoven (a.k.a. The Rock Blogger), Afshin Mousavian of The Gap Factor, Darius Bashar of Websites that Make Money, and myself: Stephanie Miller of Live Lighter.

Because of the season, this meetup was deliberately left unstructured. While blogs and blogging were mentioned in passing, most of the attending members were giddy with the social bug. Discussions were light and the end result was a highly enjoyable and social evening.

Do you want to learn more about blogging in a social atmosphere? Then sign up for the Toronto Bloggers Meetup group. Or if you’d prefer to learn about blogging and social media marketing in the privacy of your own home, subscribe to the Apollo Media blog.

On behalf of Apollo Media and Toronto Bloggers, we’d like to wish you and yours the very best over the holidays.
