networking :: blog style

what an exciting time of year. the bloggers are re-energized after the holidays, blogging conferences abound, and bloggers hosting parties that truly intended for us bloggers to meet each other!

i’m participating in a Valentine’s Day blog exchange.  what is this you ask?  i signed up and was randomly given another blogger as my Valentine. i’m to read up on her blog, get to know her, and send her a fun Valentine’s Day gift. fun!

here’s my Valentine: Nicole from Mama’s Hip Tips.  she’s got a toddler and dishes out great tips for new mommies.

what i’m loving about this season of blogging is that people are genuinely interested in meeting and getting to know one another.  outside of conferences, this is difficult.

leading up to BlissDom, i’m hosting a Cook. Shoot. Eat. with some local women so that we can get to know each other ahead of the conference.  looking forward to bringing some online women into an offline setting!
