BlogHer

So do any of my fellow Twittermom bloggers plan or hope to attend BlogHer next summer? I was so excited that they've announced the location, atlhough I was really hoping for a west coast location. Chicago might be doable but I'm waiting to talk to my DH about it all!

I would love to go to Chicago - for any reason, but to hobnob with fellow female bloggers, well...it's practically mandatory.
I'm planning to leave my hubby behind. Wahoo!

I've never even eard of it. Sounds cool though.

I went to BlogHer last year in Chicago. I missed this year because I couldn't afford to make it out to Cali. But you know I'll be there in '09! I'm so excited!

I'm not familiar with BlogHer as I am new to blogging. However I'd love to get more information.

I was going to shamelessly plug my own blog post but decided against it :) Here's more on BlogHer. Great group for women bloggers. Even if you don't go to the event, the website is fab.

Does anyone know if there is a registration fee for Blogher? I see hotel rates, but couldn't find registration. Look forward to attending my first!

I am excited for Blog Her 09'. It will be a great experince to meet so many talented women. Working with so many bloggers on a daily basis, it will be nice to finally meet them in person!

I plan to go. Perhaps we should all meet up for a dinner or something.

I went this year and will def. be going again next year. It's an amazing experience. Here's a link to my posts from this year's event in San Franciso if you are interested. The best part is getting to meet and know more about the bloggers you've been friends with online.

Haven't been to this thread in a while. It's been a hectic month of work for me! But DH and I have talked and we're about 90% sure we'll make it down to BlogHer! I've reserved a hotel room and after the holidays if all is well I'll be paying my registration fees (early bird fees are $198 for the two day conference or $99 for either Friday or Saturday only - early bird only until February!!!)

I'm so excited and I'd love to meet up with some fellow Twitterers and Twittermoms while I'm there - they're making lunches a time to split off into your own little groups, so that would be a perfect time for a get together for me. I will have DH and kiddos with me, so dinner will be time with them.

I would love to go. I'm not sure if I can swing the cost or time off yet though. Hopefully I can work something out, or I'll be so jealous of you all who get to go.
