BlogHer Conference '05

This flagship event is open to all bloggers'”including men and beginners'”interested in enhancing their online exposure, learning the latest best practices in blogging, networking with other bloggers, and specifically cultivating the female blogging community.

BlogHer Conference '05 will provide an open, inclusive forum to:

1. Discuss the role of women within the larger blog community
2. Examine the developing (and debatable) code of blogging ethics
3. Discover how blogging is shrinking the world and amplifying the voices of women worldwide

The BlogHer Conference '05 is taking place at the Network Meeting Center in the TechMart in Santa Clara, CA. Location map.

BlogHer Conference '05 will be the first of its kind, an opportunity for the female blogging community to meet in person. It will set the agenda for future BlogHer networking and enhance women's influence in the blog community.

The event will include onsite mixers and informal meet-ups for attendees seeking to network in their areas of interest. BlogHer will even set aside a "Room of Your Own" to enable attendees to form impromptu sessions. A pre-event mixer will be held in close proximity to the conference site the evening before. Also, BlogHer will designate space for vendor demonstrations, where bloggers can explore which solutions work best for their needs.

As of today (July 11) there are 40 spots left. There's also info on roomshares. The conference is sold out.

Update: BlogHerCon will have a chatroom during the event.

I'm just wondering. There's also going to be liveblogging and a chatroom. Does anyone have plans to participate in any way?

I didn't even think about the live blogging. If I end up with some free time Saturday (and I can get out of bed :) I'll try and check out some of the live blogging.

This reminds me of a long thread on slashdot in which the posters discussed how they catalogued their porn collections.

You think the shoes will be dropped from search engines because of foot fetish porn?
