BlogHer 2008 Pity Party Contest

I am totally bummed. It’s like being a teenager. All my friends are going to a party, but I’ve been grounded. I am, of course, talking about BlogHer 2008. If you are a cool blogger who is a she, you’re supposed to be going to this conference. You’re almost entitled. What gives? UPDATE:...

Cre8Buzz Beta - a Social Network for Moms (and Any Other Niche)

Alltop, my Daily Newspaper 2.0

If you haven’t already discovered Alltop, you should check it out. When I first heard about Alltop, and all the buzz, I honestly figured it was just because web guru mastermind super rockstar uber-tweeter and general Geek Overlord Guy Kawasaki was involved. My first visit to the site, I thought...
