my take on Blogher '09
>> Sunday, July 26, 2009
I went. I networked. I learned.
I attended the session on Friday and went to some great panels.
The opening address was informative! Shout out to all the cool bloggers I met at speed dating:
yummymummytips.com
Mariana Perez-buena suerte con su blog nuevo en espanol!
Christy Casimiro
Stacy Digregorio
Leslie Grimmett--following you on twitter!
Kim Moldofsky
mommywantsvodka.com
Leticia Barr
Debbie @ deliciousbaby.com-she brought her 2 month old baby to Blogher! Talk about walking the walk!
Loved the view of the Chicago River!
First panel: Business of You. Informative. Walked away with the concept of valuing my time and charging other's accordingly. Also, NOT charging an hourly fee, but rather a total project cost. I especially liked Rookiemoms questions.
My favorite, favorite session was Room of Your Own: Your Blog is Great, Get People to Know About It. Thanks to Jessica Knows for tweeting me her marketing ebook after the conference!
I also met Lisa Wahrmund of coleyblog.blogspot.com, who saved a spot in line for me so I could get some coffee. Thanks, Lisa.
At the vegetarian lunch, sponsored by Green Works, I met Amy Thompson, who makes her own laundry detergent! Kinda ironic as the lunch was to introduce Clorox's new laundry detergent.
And last, but not least, thanks to the FreshWidow, for keeping me company in the LONGEST line ever and promising to email me her notes from the session on Business of You: Blog to Book.
It was a great time and my goal is BlogHer '10 in NYC or bust!

Hey Maggie -- So nice to meet you at BlogHer! A girl needs her coffee, everyone knows that. Ha!
I hope you enjoyed the conference. I was more than a little overwhelmed, but I had a great time.
Take care!
@Lisa, it was all a little overwhelming, I don't know if I could've handled more than one day, and New York next year? Not sure
