# Russell Shaw: A tribute to a Portland Blogger

[Alex Williams](http://alexhwilliams.com/post/29155296 "Alex Williams on Russell Shaw") has offered that the [Portland Metblog meetup](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/449062/ "Portland Metblog meetup"), this Wednesday at the Green Dragon, would be the perfect place to toast former Metblogger Russell Shaw, [whom we lost, last weekend](http://siliconflorist.com/2008/03/16/russell-shaw-rip/ "Russell Shaw"):

> Bloggers, everyone – come on out Wed. night to the Metblog party at the Green Dragon and raise a pint with me to good ol’ Russell Shaw. I’ll be there to remember my good friend and Metblog colleague who passed away last weekend. Let’s share a laugh and a story about the hardest working blogger in the business. Russ and I both blogged for Metblog so it will be good to see some friends and familiar faces. Hope to see you there.

To RSVP, please visit the [Portland Metblog meetup on Upcoming](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/449062/ "Portland Metblog meetup").
