Mommyblogging Panel?
I'm still waiting for livebloggers to send me links, so I'm doing some searching to find others who are liveblogging.

live blogging the "unconference"
Hey Denise
I was wondering if anyone live blogged sunday's sessions. I was able to go to one - Twitter - and it was awesome. Others probably were equally so but I had to go. Any live-blogging or video done?
Not really
During the unconference, we're generally encouraged to keep our laptops closed and interact face to face. I don't think anyone live blogged - Amy Gahran did twitter a bit during the stuff she participated in before she headed for the airport @amylive I think is her liveblogging twitter name.
Virginia blogged about her techy activities at the unconference.

Confessions of a Bad Mother: what's so
radical about that?
It’s actually not all that radical to tell people to fuck off when they criticize you for writing about being a mother instead of taking the time to be a mother. I certainly caught some slack for writing about the time when my son was in the hospital for emergency brain surgery. “How can you be writing? How can you find the time to do this? Shouldn’t you be spending your time caring? In the moment?” And when my twins were in the NICU and I blogged about it to get me through it, hearing, “You’re a fucking horrible mother,” it wouldn’t have been terribly radical of me to lash back in defense, trying to explain why I do what I do, and don’t even get me started on my “breastfeeding to lose weight” posts. What is radical? Doing it anyway without always being an asshole about it in defense of your choices.

Chicago Bloggers
I didn't exactly live-blog our conversation, but I wrote a post with links and blognames of those who attended the Chicago Bloggers Room Of Your Own on Notions of Identity.
I'll also add my name to the widget, but I wanted the attendees to be able to find the notes from our meeting!
Lara
And I feel horrible!
I got distracted by a work issue and when I walked out of the Queer bloggers BOF, I just totally spaced the Chicago Bloggers - the one session that I most wanted to attend!
I FEEL HORRIBLE!
And SAD!
:-((((((

It's Ok!
We missed you! But don't worry 'bout it. Just keep in touch as you are getting settled in Chicago.
Notions of Identity
I'll buy you all a drink
You tell me where and when and I won't space out -- and I'll pick up the tab!
Calling all Chicago bloggers...
Just wait 'til I get home and get the last box unpacked, please.

Does Kristy Sammis Sleep?
Hey There,
Kristy Sammis and the founders of BlogHer; you are amazing and put on a great conference! Sadly, I was only able to attend Friday, but I had fun. I now know what everyone was talking about re: swag and am no longer a newbie.
Great food and party at Ruby Skye. Looking forward to attending BlogHer 2009. P.S. I have a mini recap from Suzanne Reisman's travel meet up on Pam's travel blog.
