The Westin St. Francis is located in the heart of San Francisco's Union Square, right on the cable car line. One of the city's oldest buildings, the hotel offers both old-world charm and modern luxuries.

The BlogHer Open Space is an opportunity for attendees to discuss whatever they choose in an open-yet-moderated forum. Rather than have pre-determined session topics, attendees determine the agenda for the entire day in real-time at the beginning of the OpenSpace. Multiple sessions happen concurrently in a big OpenSpace, and attendees are encouraged to vote with their feet. It's fun, engaging, and some consider it the best part of the BlogHer experience! We once again expect OpenSpace and unconference expert Kaliya Hamlin to moderate the day.
