… You might want to head over to Christina Gleason’s blog, Cutest Kid Ever! She live-blogged each session she was in, which is incredibly amazing to me. I do not have the skills for that, but thank goodness for those who do! Anyway, she has some amazingly thorough recaps to peruse, whether you attended the [...]
Many people have arrived at this post searching for information about Gina Carlin, a blogger who was supposed to attend the conference. I found out the day of the conference that she had passed away, but didn’t know if I should post about it. I never met Gina, but we have a mutual friend, and [...]

Last night, Kelby Carr joined me on my MomTV Show, Get Real, to talk about competition among women, particularly in the Blogging/Social Media world. However, you could really take these points and apply them to any situation in life where you desire success. Kelby wrote this incredible article dealing with the issue of Competition in [...]
I am so excited to have Jendi, from Simple Vlogging Tips as guest blogger today! I have been following Jendi for years, and absolutely love her! She has taught me a lot about vlogging, as I’ve watched her vlogs, read Simple Vlogging Tips, and heard her speak at places like Blissdom ’10. Have you thought [...]
I am sorry that Your Life, Your Blog is late today! The only way I can describe last week is that a tornado of ballet costumes, bobby pins and sequins thundered through my house and evacuated us to the town Auditorium for the week! We are done, but very exhausted around here! So this week’s [...]

This is going to be a quick tip today for bloggers and then get straight to your posts! Choosing a Twitter name can be one of the most grueling processes, unless you just get a stroke of genius. Here are a few thing I would consider when coming up with your name: Branding is important. [...]
I have been using Blogger since 2007 when I started blogging. I switched High Country Mom Squad over to WordPress in 2009 (well, actually my long time friend Ben Cotten did it for me! he ROCKS), and thus began my love affair with WordPress. I never really had a huge gripe with Blogger. It worked, [...]
For a few years now, I’ve heard lots of Christian Bloggers wanting a blogging conference that covers issues unique to them. I have felt the same way, as well, on occasion. Although I am more than comfortable around all types of bloggers, it’s can be nice to be in the presence of true kindred spirits. [...]
Some of the most meaningful moments on my blog have been written, not by me, but from guest bloggers! I love asking for guest bloggers for times such as vacations, special occasions, holidays, and… well, just because. The tears recently spilled over as the blogging dots were connected in an amazing way. Back in November, [...]
