OFFICIAL LIVEBLOG – Friday's Community Keynote

Session Description: About one minute into 2008's Community Keynote session, it became an instant BlogHer tradition, so yes, it's back for 2009. The Community Keynote features 21 bloggers from our community, reading their own work. Like 2008 we have multiple, diverse categories in which hundreds of attendees submitted their work. Also like 2008, the selection process was curated by Eden Kennedy of Fussy and NaBloPoMo, assisted by a committee.

Elisa: Introduction to the creator of the Community Keynote, Eden Kennedy (aka Fussy).

Fussy: Thank yous to the choosing community, as well as the BlogHer powers that be.
