The Story of The Comment Cocktail Hour

Once upon a time there was two gals in a chat talking about their new hang out, The SITS Forum. They enjoyed hanging out in the forum but something was missing. They noticed no one from their new hang out was visiting them on their blogs. They wanted to get to know these new friends and have these new friends get to know them better as well.

They remembered a time that they had participated in a fun little chat and how they would love to try something similar with their SITStas. They decided to create a twist on something old.

The idea was to get all the lovely ladies of the SITS community together one night a week to visit each other, get to know one another, to find new friends, and share their own little place on the internet.

That is how the Comment Cocktail Hour was born.

Love, Jenny & Pepper

  2. Great idea. When I first discovered SITS it seemed like I had more visits from other SITSa’s, but the visits are fairly infrequent lately.

    Once upon a time, there was this awesome chat idea but the chat idea was so awesome that it overloaded and broke. Twitter saved the day! Idea still awesome.

    The End!

    Great idea…but I think we may cause a problem on your site by having so many of us access it at once. (a good and bad thing I think). Anyway, the idea is fantastic so I hope we can get it to work. Thanks for pulling this together

    A great idea indeed. It all went a little too fast for me, so I am just now getting to all those opened tabs. I love the connections made during the hour!
