Hey, How Come Noone Ever Told Me About BlogHer?

So this weekend is the BlogHer Conference, which is all these women bloggers getting together to talk about women blogging. It's today in Santa Clara, that's what makes me extra sad about not knowing about it! (I'm what, like 60 miles away?)

This is from the Political Blogging Grows Up workshop:

1. Does it hurt the voters/public that the current political echo chamber (blog and otherwise) is male dominated?

2.Do women political bloggers have a responsibility to choose an agenda and further it? Does any political blogger, for that matter?

3. Or are people sick of agenda-talk and echo chamber-talk and just want some practical advice on how to get their individual voices heard, posts linked to and perhaps even someday their own little punditry moments on TV or the major Op-Ed pages of the world?

There are tons of women blogging about politics and how it affects their lives. So, what do some of you want to talk about?

Oh, well, I will continue blogging in isolation. At least I'm on Indyblogs and Anarchoblogs now...
