Once upon a time, I abruptly abandoned a ten-year-tradition of reading glossy magazines in the bathtub. Why? Because I loved my laptop more than bubble bath and I fell madly in love with the sites it showed me: Flickr.com and Etsy.com. I loved these sites, spending hours mooning over layouts of backyard gazebos I could stencil by hand with soy ink, doughnuts with sprinkles, and bedazzled lingerie Ithe most frequent use of which would be to snag my best t-shirts while I cleaned house on Saturday mornings). Practical stuff. I used these sites black and blue. I linked them. I linked them again. And then, one day, like the fickle woman I am, I found a new love: Pinterest.com. And lo, it was yummy.  Read more >

Hi everyone, Remember this? "Do or do not. There is no try."~ Yoda to Luke Skywalker just before Luke looked blue murder at his little green mentor Ever wonder how Yoda got out of this episode without floating face down in the swamp? Perhaps the Force inspired Luke to listen to the being with 800 years more experience.  Read more >

About Me: 

Welcome! On behalf of the entire community and my co-founders Elisa Camahort, Jory Des Jardins, welcome to  BlogHer.com. As BlogHer's co-founder and CEO, I work across our community of bloggers and sponsors to create opportunities for women who blog to gain additional community, exposure, education and economic empowerment. Before I became I blogger, I was a journalist and media strategist. I've written for The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, The Oakland Tribune, Publisher's Weekly and Frommer's, among other publications. I've launched blog networks and interactive programming for many national brands, including Hearst and Rodale magazines, E! Television/Online, HBO's Sex and the City, Knight Ridder Digital, American Lawyer Media and Glam Media.  I regularly speak about why women are the power users of Web 2.0 (and beyond) and the extraordinary citizen journalism many women and men commit online every day.

I'm a working mother who was a single parent for six years until I met Christopher Carfi (@ccarfi on Twitter). Now our Brady Bunch has three kids, two dogs and I still believe balance is baloney. Do what you love, the laundry is secondary. For more on me and my work, I invite you to visit Surfette, my personal blog. I look forward to meeting you around this site.

    Best,
    Lisa
