BlogHer ’10 Recap

Candace and I recently returned from the BlogHer Conference in New York. Thanks to the amazing generosity of Corolle Dolls, we were able to have a booth at the BlogHer conference!

I am so grateful for the opportunity to exhibit at BlogHer. During the conference, I spoke to hundreds of bloggers about the accomplishments of the five Bloganthropy Awards finalists, and we heard from bloggers about how they are using their influence to do good by supporting causes and charities they are passionate about on their blogs, Twitter and Facebook accounts.
