Ok, here is my post for all things new. My attempts. I wanted to share my Triberr update for anyone who may be interested. I was only active for a couple of days before realizing that this was not for me. I was lucky and a part of a great Tribe but had to bow out. I just couldn't keep up with it. Though not required, I wanted to read my Tribe's posts before sharing them out with those on my Twitter list. I just felt more comfortable knowing exactly what it was that I was sharing. I was able to read and comment on the posts that I was "attached" to. To me, it was more genuine that way. The content of those in my Tribe was good but with the sheer volume, I realized that I couldn't keep the pace. I wanted to make room for someone else to join the Tribe. Someone better suited to grow the Tribe. It was also cluttering up my Tweets to the point where it would take a while for me to sort through them to find which ones were auto sent via Triberr and what I posted.
I haven't written off Triberr completely because it does have merit. Perhaps in the future I will start a Tribe on a smaller scale. One consisting of Bloggers that I already read and that read mine as well.

BlogHer '11: My 15 Minutes of Fame
Today I read a tweet entitled: BlogHer Conference Update -- August 12, 2011 | BlogHer. Cool. Since I attended the conference, I wanted to read the write up. I open up the attachment and lo and behold! I see my face! Admittedly, it is not the most flattering of photos since I am clearly in mid-speech! I was telling my new blog buddies what I blog about. I am thrilled all the same. What a great souvenir of my BlogHer moment!
I am now able to cross "Have my photo on front page of BlogHer website" off of the bucket list! It's already quickly being bumped lower and lower on the page as more posts are put up. But at least it was up there at ONE point. I'm giddy!
Also pictured is Nicole Aro of The Sunlight Foundation which is a non-profit. I met a few ladies that are involved with non-profit organizations. She was kind enough to ask if I wanted company at breakfast since I was eating alone. It touched me even more that she came up to me because there were PLENTY of other empty tables available.

BlogHer '11: Day 1
Too tired to blog about it as there is SO MUCH to say! I will post a few photos though. I didn't bring a camera since I didn't have a buddy to snap photos for me/of me. I will bring one tomorrow. I apologize in advance for the poor quality photos taken with my DumbPhone. I think I was the only one in the entire Convention Center without a SmartPhone or a Tablet! OH - and the only one without business cards. Well...I ordered some but not in time. Boo. Oh Well.
Note: No pictures of me with fellow Bloggers = I was feeling shy! No shyness though with the Sponsors. Weird, I know.
