Ultimate Blog Party 2010
Scrubbing Bubbles

NOTE: This is the AFTER-PARTY for the Ultimate Blog Party 2010. If you are looking for the MckLinkies with the 2300+ blog URLs, click over to our UBP party post. And don’t worry — those linkies aren’t going anywhere! So you can come back all year long and find fresh, fabulous new blogs to read!

UBP10-Janice-SusanAfter seven days of partying, three UBP10 LIVE events, and tons of tweeting, the official Ultimate Blog Party 2010 is winding down.

THANK YOU so much for coming and partying with us!!! We are honored to host you all here at 5 Minutes for Mom. We just wish we could make it through all 2,300 blogs! (We should have a contest for the person who makes it through the most!)

We had so much fun partying with you all — and our kids loved their annual Ultimate Blog Party too. With this being our fourth year partying up internet style, our kids consider Blog Parties as normal as Birthday Parties. (My son kept asking me this year, “When is the Ultimate Blog Party?”)

Here are our kids partying up at our Ultimate Blog Party 2010. At the beginning of the video Susan caught four year old Julia on the phone with her friend explaining that she was at a Blog Party. Way too funny!

Yes, it was another wonderful (and exhausting!) week, with more than 2300 bloggers participating. Now it is time for us to start drawing winners and sorting through all those fabulous UBP10 prizes.

BUT that doesn’t mean the fun has to end…

No — as you learned in the UBP10 — the fun is just beginning!

First: Get on our Newsletter List.

If you don’t want to miss any exciting opportunities at 5 Minutes for Mom, make sure you sign up for our newsletter so we can keep you up to date with future events. We value and respect your privacy — your email address is safe with us!

Second: Get on our NEW Ultimate Blogger List.

If you are a blogger and you want more blogging opportunities such as review and giveaway offers, local events and parties, conferences like the Disney SMM Conference and more, add your info to The Ultimate Blogger List.

Add Your Name to The Ultimate Blogger List Now!

This is a private list – your information will NOT be available to the public or posted online. This list is for us to help bring YOU the blogger opportunities you want.

Third: Join in the UBP10 After-Party!

Keep reading to find out how…

How we party at a UBP After-Party

UBP10-olivia-blue-balloonsYES — there is MORE partying!

As you jumped through the MckLinkies, you discovered blogs you want to keep reading and friendships you want to keep building!

So at this After-Party, we are celebrating those new discoveries.

Here is what you do:

  1. Write a UBP10 AFTER PARTY post on your site sharing at least THREE new blogs you discovered at the UBP10. (They have to be brand new to you!)
  2. Come back here and add the URL to your UBP10 AFTER PARTY.
  3. Then click through the Mcklinky and find out what blogs people are talking about!

Happy After-Party!!!

IMPORTANT

PLEASE NOTE: Before you add your link to the #UBP10 AFTER-Party you need to WRITE an after-party post LINKING to 3 new blogs you found! Please do not just link to your home page!

    I’m a reader not a blogger, (I have a blog but do not write in it…I just never feel quite up to it and I have no skills – URLs etc) I am currently undergoing some rough chemotherapy and reading these happy, helpful blogs is a great way to take my mind off these troubles. I have been a 5 minutes for mom subscriber for a little while already which is how I learned about UBP. Oh, goodness, ladies, what a fun time I have had.. I am in awe of your ability to organize and expedite! Fabulous! I cannot post links… I don’t know how – but I would be remiss not to mention Lisa Cooking … a blog I really fell for, and peggy gorman’s blog, also Still Blonde and Staci. Wonderful fun places to visit and all because of you. Plus you leave the list so I can continue to visit new places. Wonderful. Thank you for a very exciting week!

I really just wanted to thank you for bringing all of us bloggers together for some get to know you time. I’ve been sick all week but it’s easy to party on the laptop.

    This was such a wonderful experience. I made lots of new friends and bookmarked tons of new sites to follow-up on. To pick out 3 would be difficult because there are so many different women out there with so many different outlooks on life and Motherhood.

    One blog stands out to me though… and one particular post on this blog surpasses anything else I’ve come across over the past week. @Dayngr of “Dayngrous Discourse” wrote a post titled “Remembering My Mom, 3 Years Later” http://tinyurl.com/y6t6dqe that was so touching that it moved me to tears. Please take a moment to read what she has written about her beloved Mother and her memories (and be sure to have a phone nearby so you can call your Mother immediately!).

    Thank you so much for bringing all of us together ladies. What a wonderful world you’ve opened up 🙂

    Thanks so much for this party. I’ve met some great girls and hope to have more blogs to read. And hopefully more “Followers”
    I will note, however, everytime I get on this site, I get a “virus” warning. I have a good anti-spyware, so it hasn’t hurt me.
    Can’t wait to see you next year…it will be my 3rd party with you!

    What a great idea! I actually started blogging about sites I visited last week. Since SandwichINK focuses on the Sandwich Generation and the Baby Boomers Generation caring for elderly parents, with kids still at home, and/or helping with the grandchildren, I looked specifically for blogs in that niche and found several. And it’s not too late! I’d love to do a way-after post with even more sites of interest and encouragement to the Sandwich Generation. Just leave me a comment at SandwichINK. 🙂 🙂 🙂

    To all of you at 5 Minutes for Mom, THANK YOU ! It was a terrific week that’s not over yet and we really appreciate ALL your HARD WORK to do this!!! And yes, I’m already looking forward to the 2011 Ultimate Blog Party!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

I have made a commitment to myself to read ALL of the blogs listed. Obviously, it will not happen today but it will happen. I’ll let you know when I finish (whenever that may be).
