NBC graciously welcomed 130 NYC bloggers to Studio 6 (Conan O’Brien’s studio). It was quite the event. They even served sandwiches and shrimp. "The last time they served shrimp was at Gabe Pressman’s 80th birthday party," Erin Monteiro, Interactive Content Specialist at WNBC-TV, and one of the organizers of the event told me.

No drinks, though. Alcohol is prohibited at FCC regulated facilities. They did invite everyone to an after-party at the NBC Bar on West 48th Street.

Lots of notable bloggers were in attendance: Gawker, Gothamist, Curbed, Gowanus Lounge, A Brooklyn Life, Laid-Off Dad, Footnoted, Media Bistro, Manhattan Offender, City Rag, Fourbyfour, East Village Idiot, Varsity Basketweaving, and many, many others.

They will send out a a list tomorrow.

NBC wants to make nice with NYC bloggers. They want our stories, they want our tips. They want the "content" that we’re finding in our neighborhoods, on our beats.

And they will give credit to us, link to our blogs, and even interview us on television.

They also gave out NYC Blogger Summit baseball caps.

"It was a groundbreaking night. The biggest gathering of NYC bloggers ever. TV meets the web." Hey, I’m typing this as I watch Sree Sreenivasam, Dean of Students and Professor at Columbia Graduate School of Journalism and WNBC’s Tech Reporter.
