Boat blogging, anyone?
By: Soumya Mukerji

Delhi: 

Blogging is all about an open mind and open thoughts; so what better than a blog meet right in the lap of nature? Kerala Tourism is conducting a first of its kind
blog camp early next month in the breathtaking backwaters of Alleppey.
 
Called 'Blogging Unconference', this event will have the unique distinction of being the first blogging symposium to be held in a houseboat.  

In the flow

"Initially, it was planned as a two day do at an island in Cochin. But then the tourism director, M Sivasankar, came up with the boat idea and we thought it'd be great," says organiser Kenney Jacob. The idea of an 'unconference' is all about free, friendly, unbounded interaction between bloggers who rarely know each other in person.

"It's all very informal. No inaugurations, felicitations, speakers or audience. Everyone is an active participant when it comes to discussing various facets of the blog world", Jacob explains.
Time for the capital to get creative with its blog meets, ha?
