You want to be a Featured BlogHer, don't you?

This sounds great.

I assume all/most bloggers here would love this kind of exposure so, 1) how do you choose between all your memebrs who fulfill those 3 steps you ask for, and 2) how long will the "featured" be featured - one day or longer then that?

Sure, I'd like to be a featured blogger! It looks like I need to plan to start blogging here - so far I've only commented :-)

What a great idea! I've been commenting, written two posts, read a ton, and had no idea there were forums. I'll have to delve a bit deeper. Already I feel a new site addiction coming on. I hope to make it to the BlogHer con next summer and meet face to face all these cool chicks!

And I thought I'd set up my Blogher info already! Guess I'm still figuring it out. I keep seeing my blog posts listed under the Blogher ads, but otherwise I'm clueless about Blogher World. Thanks for the tips!

On Living By Learning ( http://onlivingbylearning.com/ ):

but currently don't really have one I use a lot.

I did think the Blogher forum was quite small - and also, sadly for me, very US focussed.  But I will keep an eye on it : )

I think I have a recipe for that... ( http://krissyscookingblog.blogspot.com/ )

So glad you're updating. :-)

This is something that a lot of women feel, so don't feel like you're the only one. But, what's really interesting is that you don't have to work that hard to promote yourself here - all you have to do is participate by writing about topics that you love, commenting on posts that interest you, having discussions with others within the community.

You don't have to actively SELL yourself in order to sell yourself, ya know?

We had more but scaled down awhile back. Are you a "forum" lover?

You've gone through a lot and every now and then I see a post that makes me think about you.

How much longer are you going to be in the hospital, this time? Is this the last surgery? (Fingers crossed!)

I don't want to be queen, uh uh, no way, no how. Besides, I'm just the messenger - this is a total team effort, BlogHer is like that. :-)

I look forward to seeing you as the Featured BlogHer.

Loving the new format! I love the featured blogher! We need to raise up ourselves and this is a fine way to do it! 

Love,

Awesome. I am a big promoter of my blog but often find I run out of time between blogging, promoting, being a single Mom of 5 and all that goes along with that! I don't get to BlogHer nearly enough and when I do, I love it! I'm in the hospital right now recovering from my 3rd knee reconstruction this year post car accident and I BlogHer is a great diversion. I'll be sure to keep it at the top of my to-do list!

What a great idea! Who doesn't want a little attention?

I love the recent changes to the site -- it seems a bit easier to zero in on things.

My first thought was there's forums?  Where?  How did I miss that?

My second thought was "Pick me, Fat Cat!"

(OK, that last thought may be lost on you if you missed out on quality Australian children's shows of the 80's, but I hope you get the point).

I have now found the forums, and I'm off to find a photo that is a suitable avatar for me.  Yay!

Reading this post got me straigh away thinking;

"Yes, I do" and "No, I can't".

Pride of my blog and then that darn feeling of I can't promote myself comes up, all that in a split second. 

Thanks Denise! this put me in a spot, thinking what do I want.

However I wrote this week about intent and my intent is to play and contribute, so here I am with my "yes" and "no". :)

The new profile editing area kicks bootay and makes more sense in terms of presenting oneself to the community.  I like the design iterations.
