BIG CROWD AT THE SOCIAL MEDIA BREAKFAST

This morning I attended the Social Media Breakfast hosted at Singapore's Asian Civilization Museum. There was supposed to be a speaker and an informal discussion, but everyone seemed satisfied mingling around the room, discussing their blogs, and getting to know one another.

The first person I met was Dorthy Poon, a freelance designer.

Two of the organizers were Daryl Tay, an SMU student and former MTV Asia staffer and Claudia from her tech blog claudia.sg.

I was also able to meet DK, an avid blogger and a guy who has been on my facebook contact list for quite some time. (It was through his feed that I found out about the event.)

I was also able to meet U-zyn Chua, the tech guru that founded ping.sg. He also invited me to a dim sum lunch where I met three of his friends and blogger named Daphne.

Mini-tea, Oh Look, Krill! blog author, introduced herself.

Sebastien Deschamps told everyone about his new expat search engine called Interexpat, an edited search engine for foreigners living outside of their home country.

I had a fairly long conversation with Andrew Peters, a marketing and PR consultant who works on a variety of tech projects and corporate blogs.

Todd Murray is an Australian who was plugging a new internet television web startup called Activechannel.

Since the event was hosted at the Asian Civilizations Museum by the National Heritage Board, many NHB staffers were there including Kenny Ng, Walter Leng, and Chin Wei Chong.

The breakfast was even covered by the press; Mediacorp's Today paper reporter Alicia Wong was on the scene interviewing people.

I'm sure I missed some people. The people listed here are only the ones that gave me cards. If I did miss you just remind me in the comments section and I'll add you to the list.

It was great to meet everyone and a few pictures will be posted soon!
