Hi,
>>How different are we from them?.//
>While there are several LUGs, that do great job without these, Why can't We
can also be one among them, and set an example?
>Off course, as few others pointed out, there are alternatives like
identi.ca
etc.,
While some of the lugs which i pointed earlier has the social networking
dimension,
I do not see this as evil. may be my opinion, i leave it to the list for
arriving its own decision
Some interesting facts about the last meet population
Jaya engg college guys = 5 (at the fag end of the session 2 left)
Kanchi lug boys = 2
Shrini + 2 brothers = 3
My kids + myself = 3
Vatsala+ Raman = 2
----------
Total participants: 15(13 at the end of the session)

Sorry for misquoting as 18 earlier, no freshers, all are directed/usual
members, at this rate we will find a place next to tigers in the endangered
list of animals. An A/C hall which has a seating capacity of nearly 50
people had merely 15 people. The infra structure provided by iit-m was
excellent but not at the best/optimum use.
IMHO, We are talking something else instead of addressing the core issue of
bringing the crowd.Social networking is one of the action items, i humbly
invite all for the next meet. Your presence is the biggest present.I will
close this as my last reply in this thread.
Thanks and regards,
Thyagarajan Shanmugham
