Finally met Narayanan Sir at Saravana Bhavan today. Also met Ambi (a budding blogger). Had a nice chat !
Always thought of Narayanan Sir as
Narayanan Venkitu
Emeritus Professor of Blogology
Bay Area Bloggers College
The man has an aura of reverence among the bay area blogger community for his sincerity and his guts to take on social issues.
He was as sincere and casual in person as his voice and writing on his blogs. It was nice to hear these two guys talk about their blogging experience, the consequences of blogging at home, things in general, India, nostalgia.. It was like web surfing, except this was a converstion with real people about whom you seem to know so much and so little at the same time (now, what i just wrote may sound stupid, but that is exactly what went through my mind at the time).
We should do this more often.. May be a bay area desi bloggers coffee social ?
Would like to thank these guys for taking the time to meet me.
