	Priyank Networking works....the offline form....helps take the online relationship to the next level. Prasnata...I have formed some amazing friendships out of networking ....offline and online Youshay....we have an opportunity to connect to like minded people through such events and also learn a lot.

	Prasanta, we appreciate your visits to SP, thanks.Liked your announcement too :)

	Kriti Mukherjee says:	Apr 03, 2012
	Prasanta - thank you very much for coming our way!

	Kriti, I liked your suggestion. Fact is I don't find much time for all these. I rarely visit FB, but yes I make it a point to at least visit SP twice a day.So now I have announced here a bit loudly that I am looking out for friends....

	Prasanta what are you waiting for - SP is your home as much as it is ours : )

	Kriti/Sulekha, I am really amazed to see both of you so closely for last few months and started believing that Networking really works. Would love to work out on it here.

	Yoshay you will not even know that we are meeting for the first time. I know I won't feel that way with you. I can't wait really... That's what happened with so many of the people commenting here. Priyank thank you so much for giving us some credit... I would so love to meet you sometime.

	I would love to meet my new friends who I have met through Ladies Club and Social Potpourri. I haven't met anyone physically so far as my geographical location makes it a bit difficult, but I am looking forward to meeting them all in the near future. I am a bit wary of strangers yes, I'm a bit shy and I often tend to feel out of place, but I know for sure that, that will never happen in the company of lovely people like Kriti, Sulekha, Swati and Sukanya.

	Going to an event to network seems the brand new thing to me that Social Potpurri has created, and meetups seem interesting. I've been to none of such events. It has always happened through the word of mouth. "REMAINED CONNECTED" with 1000?? May be Mamta's Lessons would work :)

	Have had the good fortune of being introduced to networking by the queen herself! Mamta! Life, both personal and professional has been so much more fun since I learned to network!

	Sulekha and Kriti I agree with you 100% and you both are perfect examples of networking works.... and I am sure most do...though I wonder the about the effort required...do they....

	Networking is like opening your birthday presents, no matter what you unwrap, you are assured a gift. You walk into a roomful of strangers and walk out having made some good friends and some business contacts.I have networking to thank for my Mitr and partner :)Ours is a true story of how online strangers become real-life best buddies, offline.

	Networking is the key to many a problems these days Mamta! I met my soul friends, business partner and my conscience in human form online. I was introduced to some of the most interesting people in my career/life through networking. People in some cases are shy of the term - but one loses out without it. There are no two ways about it.
