So I might have messed up some of the links on my last entry, but I'm way too tired to fix it right now.

It's past midnight and that means that it's way past my bedtime. Today has been a whirlwind. As a BlogHer volunteer, I reported for duty at 10am sharp with the other volunteers to go over our duties. The conference started at 11am and it was nonstop from there.

Obviously BlogHer is a ton of fun. It's a smaller conference than the big one in San Jose, but this one is more focused on business bloggers, and I must say that I really enjoy the smaller crowd better. Many of the "A-list" bloggers are noticeably absent and as one of my fellow bloggers pointed out today, it makes us all feel like we're on the same level.

It was a day of tons of really excellent networking. I met a ton of people, but one person who I was thrilled to meet for the first time was Elise of Simply Recipes and Learning Movable Type. Being a total Movable Type nerd, I originally discovered Elise through Learning Movable Type where I actually gained a huge amount of my MT knowledge. I also attended her BlogHer06 session How to Build Blog Traffic and came away with a TON of hugely useful ideas for my blogs. Elise is hugely down to earth and I really enjoyed talking with her.

After the conference, I joined my fellow volunteers and hit the after party and about four Yahootinis and chatted it up with zillions of more people before hitting this lovely cheese restaurant and dragged my bottom back to the hotel....

so much more but i'm so darn tired.
