MOB Rules: Addendum
After Saturday's NARN show, I got together with a couple of the other family heads from the Minnesota Organization of Bloggers (MOB) to discuss MOB business (since such conversation is not allowed at the dinner table). A couple of additional rules regarding MOB membership arose as a result of these summit talks:
- If you attend a Thursday night trivia contest at Keegan's Irish Pub and introduce yourself to one of the Northern Alliance reps, you are automatically admitted to the MOB.
- All other requests for membership must be submitted by the blogger who wishes to be admitted. We've been a little lax in this area in the past, but from now on we will not accept third party applications.
- If you submit an application for membership to one of the Northern Alliance blogs via e-mail and are accepted into the MOB, you MUST attend a future MOB event to maintain your status. In other words, being accepted into the MOB is contingent on attendance at an upcoming MOB event.
There is going to a huge MOB blowout this summer. Before then we'll also have a smaller event as well. Details will be forthcoming. If you've just joined the MOB, plan on hitting at least one of these affairs.
We realize that these MOB events have been rather Twin City-centric, which poses challenges for some of the out-state MOBsters. We're looking into the possibility of having King host a satellite MOB event in St. Cloud to make the logistics a bit easier.
