I had such a great time at the Mom 2.0 Summit, February 18 - 20, 2010 at The Four Seasons Hotel in Houston, Texas. In addition to speaking on a panel with the fabulous Rob Morhaim of Deca.TV, Rebecca Woolf and Leah Peterson, I was able to photograph some of the most beautiful faces online. Thanks for such a great time!]]>

I was thrilled to be the keynote speaker at the Blogalicious 2009 conference, held at the W-Atlanta Hotel. This very special conference was created to provide women bloggers of all colours, creeds, nationalities and backgrounds the opportunity to celebrate their diversity, social media, and of course, their love for blogging.
I spoke "The Beauty of Different," and it was an absolute blast. Thanks to the amazing organizers for a spectacular time.

On July 5, 2009, the New York Times used a screen capture from Momversation of my face, frozen while talking about whether I consider myself a feminist. The capture was used as the main image of their article, Rise of Web Video, Beyond 2-Minute Clips (both online and print).
My husband Marcus called the expression on my face, "constipated, but pensive." Personally, I'm just happy that my first appearance in the New York Times was for good, and not evil.
