L.A. Observed Meets and Greets the L.A. Journo Crowd



LA Observed's Kevin Roderick gathered a mix of local journalists, media types and bloggers Thursday night to celebrate the conclusion of the site's script project.

The event, held on the roof balcony of West Hollywood's famed Formosa Cafe, also marked L.A. Observed's fifth anniversary.

I was only able to stay about an hour -- wanted to get home in time to tuck in Blogger Preschooler -- but still had a chance to make some rounds and catch up with several local bloggers and others.



Among those I had a chance to chat with: Carolyn Kellogg, who moved back to L.A. this summer and has been blogging at the L.A. Times' "Jacket Copy" site; Darleene Powells; Eric Lynxwiler; Bob Timmermann; my former Variety colleague (now at W) Gabriel Snyder; Pat Saperstein; David Markland; and many others.

Were you there? Wish I could have met more folks -- but Roderick is hinting at more events like this in the future, so perhaps I'll see you there!
