… were present last night at the Eden Bar of Enzian Theatre, Maitland for the 4th Orlando Tweetup graciously organized by @etanowitz from Orlando Sentinel. I have been unwell since the tweet-up, thus the delay in this post and announcements. This was our first tweet-up and visit to Enzian. A regal, cozy and whimsical atmosphere, Enzian serves not only an open bar, but a delicious mug of Chai Latte. Yes, you read it right. It was a bar, with a chilly-breezy evening and I ordered a Chai Latte. What more can I ask?

It was so much fun, meeting local bloggers and tweeps!

Congratulations to the winners!

I enjoyed meeting Dave Knechel, author of Marinadedave.com. With a hard-hitting journalistic writing skills, Dave covers important news and updates through his blog. My first impression of him – a witty individual 😀

Bess is the editor of The Central Florida Top 5. If you need a guide to Central Florida’s upcoming events, thank Bess and say goodbye to Google/Yahoo/Bing for the time being! It was a pleasure getting to know her personally since we’ve been using her blog as our pad for event information.

Hello! Teresa from Disunplugged.com. The Dis Unplugged Disney Blog is an unofficial and unbiased blog about all things Disney. In the shortest time frame of introductory, I could sense her friendliness demeanor. Congrats on being awarded for the Orbbies 2009 Best Overall Blog category.

We also met Mark Baratelli, owner of Thedailycity.com, a blog that features culture guide for Orlando, Florida and a series of live events. He was amazed at my self-taught photography skills 🙂 Thanks Mark!

Say ‘Hi’ to Ricky, author of Tastychomps where he narrates his dining adventures in Orlando and around US.

We won the 2009 Orbbies Rockin’ Blogs in two categories – Chatterbox for Personal and Shutterbox for Photography! Yay! Thank you so much every one, for voting and following our blogs. Tarun and I are extremely humbled. Of course, this couldn’t be possible without Orlando Sentinel. Our sincere gratitude for the opportunity and honors. Thank you Etan and his lovely wife, Daphne for organizing a tremendously successful Tweetup! This is sounding more like a speech during the Grammys.

Last, but not least, you should know about us by now. Else, stroll down the Chatterbox memory lane and Subscribe to us.

Penning off now before I ruin your mascara 😉 Off to recuperate!

Edit: FYI, the free header customization is still up for grabs!
