How many bloggers can you recognize in this video of “5 Minutes for Mom” at BlogHer?
Janice and I had a fabulous time at BlogHer 08 in San Francisco!
We met so many amazing women and had an endless stream of fascinating conversations.
But we didn’t keep all the fun for ourselves… we hired a video production crew to record our interviews with some of our favorite bloggers and to go party-hopping with us.
Here’s a taste of the videos that we’ll be releasing over the next few weeks.
Watch and see how many different bloggers you can recognize… then leave a comment and tell us all how many you can name.

Wow! That was seriously fancy! You two look soooo fabulous!
#2 - Jennifer, Snapshot @ 7:44 am
Wow!
I wasn’t too sad that I didn’t go, but reading some of the live blogging posts have been published this weekend did make me feel like I was missing out.
These videos will both help, and probably make me feel like I missed out.
I recognize Gabrielle from Design Mom and Kirtsy, and it was great to see both of you in action. You look GREAT.
#3 - Kim @ Up North Mommy @ 7:45 am
Great video! Watching this makes me want to go to next year’s BlogHer convention.
By the way, you ladies are beautiful, if you don’t mind my saying. Your blog image doesn’t do you justice!

Wow-this looks great. So when are you getting your own TV show?? Can’t wait to see the clips. We met each other briefly at one of the Mommy Blogger panels and the closing Keynote but didn’t get much time to ‘hang’. I’m Barbara Jones from One2One Network and The Wom Mom blog. One of your contributors, Jennifer D. may have mentioned that we did the Walking With Dinosaurs promotion with your site which went great. Anyway, it was nice meeting you at the conference and I just want to congratulate you both on such a helpful/useful (and successful) site for Moms. Sisters ARE doin’ it for themselves (and Moms!)
