Bloghercon kicks off
We're live blogging at Bloghercon in Santa Clara. Lisa Stone, conference organizer, – wants to get beyond “where are the women bloggers” to discuss what women are doing with blogging everywhere. The mission is education, exposure and community. We also want to know how do we serve the needs of hundreds of women who have emailed us and are unable to be here? We want to create the “mother of all to-do lists” by the end of the conference. What have we learned? What would you share with other people around the world about this?
Elisa Camahort tells us that they started the process by putting up a site and getting feedback. They did a survey with an overwhelming response. Attendees are 80% women, 20% men. 1/3 have a blog, 1/3 have two or more blogs. About 15% are newbies. More than half from outside the Bay Area, many from international locations. 75% of respondents care about traffic and links, while others view blogging as purely personal – or “I don’t play that game”.
