I've seen all the links for the New York MeFi shindig; now I'm wondering about Philly. A gauge of general interest in a Philadelphia-area MeFi gathering?

I've been searching (futilely) for a listing of Philly 'bloggers, or Philly MeFites. Has anyone from that area ever attempted a get-together (and is there a comprehensive listing that I'm overlooking?)

FYI, I'm just outside of Philly, but know of several good spots for a Philly MeFi lunch/dinner/coffee whatever. If the interest is strong enough, I'd like to get one in the works.

Count me in. I don't know how many other Philly bloggers there are, or even how many are in the suburbs.

I just compiled a rather large list of possible sites for the booze fest for Fark; I'd definitely be in for a similar brain trust meeting for MeFi...

...of course I'd have to change my menu of suggested locations from focusing on cheap beer to the availability of top-shelf cognacs...

I just moved outta Phillly to North Jersey a few months ago, but I am down. Especially if dogmatic is. Because he is so snarky.

This place is awesome, if we're interested in doing the dinner thing. Any other suggestions? Coffee, cocktails, anything?

I have a fondness for sushi (and Japanese) and know of several places, but I'm open to anything.

I vote casual -- Tavern on Green, Rembrandts, Jack's Firehouse? Sorry so Fairmount-centric...

Jack's is awesome. Great food, great atmosphere. Never been to the other two!
