VEGAS, BABY? Where should BlogHer '08 be and more: Take the BlogHer '07 survey

Somewhere cool in the summer... Seattle, San Diego, Portland, Lake Tahoe, etc...

;o)

p.s. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new design and layout!

But they converted the one on the third floor near the rooftop terrace, so I don't think it was the most obvious...I never saw anyone but me go in there :)

I think because the public could still access other parts of the facility they didn't want to convert a more obvious one.

But, yes, every year in fact we've had them turn some of the men's rooms over to the womens :)

...because cheap flights are available, but then there's always the fear that I'd miss sessions because I was winning at Blackjack.

If I can find a way to attend BlogHer next year, I will, no matter where it's held.

I put it on my survey, but want to chime in here too: Make sure to consider the restroom facilities when choosing next year's venue. The long lines at Navy Pier meant many of us were late to sessions. I can't believe that a conference facility wouldn't have more than a couple of women's stalls on each floor.

Hi Elisa,
Vegas sounds good! The National Flute Convention held their annual event there a few years ago in August and aside from the 110 degree heat outside and a sinus condition, I had fun.

Elisa,

I was completing the last question in the survey and was about to click on Submit. Before I could do so, I was taken to the intro page of the survey. By chance did the completed survey come through. If not, has this happened to others?

Thanks,

Never let the urgent crowd-out the important.

If you included your name I should be able to find you if I do a database search. If you didn't but know the time you think you completed it I can try to figure it out, but it might be hard.

Sorry about that, I messed up the skip logic on that question, and they won't let you edit skip logic on a live survey :(

So, here's what I did: the only other "mandatory" question on the first page is now the one about how you feel about our 100% women speaking roster (which anyone can weigh in on, not just those who attended, after all.)

The skip logic works on the next pages, so as long as you keep answering "no, I did not attend day one, day two, the OpenSpace" etc. with just a couple of extra clicks you should get to the end where the topic and location voting happens.

Again, sorry...please give it another go!

As well as you can without having attended. The only fields required are the * fields and you can answer based on how you think you'll feel next year.... so the swag question, how do you think you'll feel about having swag at a conference next year. That works. :-)

clicking on 'did not attend.'

Look for me at http://crunchycarpets.com or check out the ladies at www.wetcoastwomen.com ( http://www.wetcoastwomen.com )

I've tried to take the survey. I've answer the questions but it keeps saying that I haven't answered all of the * questions.

I'm using Firefox so when I get a chance I try it in Opera or IE.

Oo, I wish there was a "save and come back." I just got to page two and realized I can't complete the survey without my program in front of me. It would help if speaker's names were listed with their blog names, and maybe even pictures. I'm looking at the first session I went to, and I have no idea who those people are!

I went back and cut and pasted my answers from page one into a Word doc, so I'll just try again later with my book in front of me.
