We are pleased to announce that the first leg of the first-ever BlogHer road show, the Reach Out Tour, is officially open for registration!

BlogHer BOSTON '08 will be taking place on Saturday, October 11, at the Boston Marriott Burlington. It will feature many of the same elements of our annual event, along with a little local flavor.

We have some very important information regarding making hotel reservations for the BlogHer '08 Conference in San Francisco!

As of this morning, we are at about 80% capacity on our room block. This means that there ARE still rooms available (really!), but our room block will sell out. 

For over a year now, I have been traveling and going to professional conferences as a person with a disability, a wheelchair and crutches user. Abilities and disabilities vary wildly. My own issues are most often bathrooms, distances, exhaustion, and stairs. I am less aware of issues and solutions for people with visual impairments and for the deaf or hearing impaired community; I apologize for not addressing those issues here.

If you have mobility issues and wonder about the accessible geography of the conference, I have a ton of information!

The BlogHer Business '08 podcasts are here!

Thanks to our friends at ListenShare, we are now able to offer you complete podcasts of BlogHer Business '08 sessions.

What would the BlogHer annual conference be without some proper blog bling?

Sure, the first order of business is actually registering. And then it'd be awesome if you'd like to add yourself to our ever-growing roster of attendees.

But even if you haven't gotten around to these first steps (ahem, tick tock), it's never too early to add BlogHer '08 badge beauty to your blog. We've worked up our Official "I'm Going!" and "I'm Speaking" buttons for you again this year. But we've also added a few more "personal" buttons to the mix. (You're doing what at BlogHer?)

Check 'em out:

Bit by bit, session by session, the BlogHer '08 Conference Agenda is being revealed. Check out the link, and make sure to scroll or click your way down to see the detailed descriptions, not just the session titles.

There are now five tracks:
Who We Are
What We Do
What We Believe
How We Communicate Who We Are, What We Do and What We Believe (aka the tech track)
And (drum roll please) we decided to add a MommyBlogging track!
