This is starting to sound like a blind date - "I'll be the guy in the xxxxx colored shirt and AEs."

Seriously, though, I'm down with some idea that will help us find the other SFers.

If you see an Indian dude, ask him if his name is Karim.
It'll either be me or mkarim.

Haha. Duly noted!

I'll be the confused-looking white guy in the blue and white OCBD.

In Atlanta, this doesn't really narrow things down.

For some reason, Nikolai's Roof reminds me (as much as Atlanta can of San Francisco) of the View Lounge at the San Francisco Marriott.


Believe it.

Are you serious? You're in Atlanta dude, finding the SFers will not be very hard.

So yeah, the first (?) Atlanta SF meet up did happen!! And turn-out was pretty impressive (8 members). The guys at Sid Mashburn were happy to have us, the Caruso trunk show was great and the food and drinks at JCT were top notch also.

Here are a few pictures of the night:

It was great to meet everyone; I had a great time. My IRL conversation with Artisan_Fan about styrofoam cups was pretty much the highlight of my night.
