Just got back from the marathon business trip that culminated in an absolutely awesome inaugural BlogHer Business Conference. I didn't know what to expect. Of course, we would have awesome speakers, but would we still be able to pull off the energy that is normally experienced at the summer BlogHer Conference (which I've dubbed, BlogHer Blowout)?
There's something about getting a bunch of women bloggers together, whether they are Mommy bloggers, business bloggers, or, as I learned, companies seeking to learn more about social media. Every woman (and man) that I met at BlogHer Business oozed curiosity. There was a generosity of spirit--attendees who offered up their best practices--and humility. Veterans mixed it up with the newbies. Publishers chit-chatted with consultants. The business bloggers ate Twizzlers with the agency execs. Media behemoths pow-wowed with tech giants. And there were shoulder rubs to boot. One big business love-in, without singing Kumbaya.
THIS is why I do this.
BlogHer Business conferences
So glad you're back...and in tact Jor...
I've been reading some pretty wonderful posts about the conference in general. Seems everyone loved it and took some valuable knowledge away with them. Kudos to you, Lisa and Elisa...and everyone who took part in its success.
How great was it to be back sleeping in your own bed? Miss and love you oodles....-Mom

Tremendous job, Jory. You are a real star. I wish I could attend one of your conferences. I hope there will be more comments in the following days. ;)

just the words "getting a bunch of women bloggers together" conjures a pretty exciting picture.
Some day I'm going to be earning enough to get to Blogher!!
