Hey all,

Since a few people have been asking for a "meet and greet" on this tour, I thought I should post the dates that I'm anticipating to be in various cities, and from there we can organize some little event.

In most places no particular venue has been decided yet - it could be anywhere from my hotel to a local restaurant/coffeehouse/chaiwala/mall - where ever is most convenient. I will probably know only a couple of days in advance, so I would announce a venue both by updating this post and on Twitter @mgcarley | @hayai_in

Also, in some locations, if you have a particularly... interesting way of accessing the internet, I'd like to perhaps even come and have a look! In some cities I will also be attempting to meet with ISPs for a friendly chat.
