I will be in San Diego for the BlogHer conference August 5 and 6. If you're not going to BlogHer because you are not a blogger, that would make a whole lot of sense. If you're not going to BlogHer because you can't afford the registration fee, I have a tip for you. Go to BlogHer Pathfinder Day! It's on Thursday, August 4 and is only $65 to register. (Or, if you are going to BlogHer, register for this as well!) Participants can join in on any one of 5 different paths:
- Using Your Blog as A Change Agent (Come see me! I'm a presenter!)
- Turning Your Blog Into A Business
- Turning Your Blog Into A Media Company
- Turning Your Blog Into A Book
- Using Your Blog to Enrich Your Life
Participating is a great way to meet some amazing bloggers, including Karen Walrond of Chookooloonks, Ree Drummond of The Pioneer Woman and Morgan Shanahan of The 818. This pre-BlogHer event is much smaller — limited to only 40 people per path — so you really will get an intimate opportunity to talk to others and learn new things. Hope to see you there!
Signing up for a Pathfinder Day was a sort of last-minute decision for me, and I am SO GLAD I did. I have to be honest that getting to hear you speak on using blogging to make significant social change highly influenced my decision. Can't wait to meet you and hear your wisdom on the topic!
I'm signed up for the Pathfinder day, too! I'm doing the "Enrich your Life" track, but I do hope to meet you.
I'm anticipating that the Pathfinder day might be the most practical take-away information of the conference.
all signed up for Blog as Change Agent! This will definitely be a big highlight for me. Love that it's a small group comprehensive session. I'm sure we'll learn so much from you ladies! Can't wait!
