Average Jane Plans for Her 5th BlogHer Conference

I know it's more than a month away, but I'm already getting excited about going to BlogHer again this year. If you read my blog directly (rather than via its RSS feed), I'm sure you already gathered that by the amount of BlogHer-related graphics in my right-hand sidebar.

As a little foretaste, I'm taking a road trip to St. Louis tomorrow with Betizuka for the closest pre-BlogHer meetup to me. I don't really know what to expect, but I always love hanging out with people who already understand what a blog is.

This year I'm going to both BlogHer Business and the BlogHer Conference. Because I do social media for a living, I think I'm going to get a lot of value from the Business conference. As for the regular conference – it's all about meeting people!

I'm sure it'll be the usual whirlwind of old and new friends, interesting discussions and ridiculous amounts of swag.

As someone who's been attending BlogHer since it began, I cannot overstate how impressed I am with the way it has grown. I want to be Lisa, Jori and Elisa when I grow up.

Are you going to BlogHer this year? If so, let me know so I can look for you. (Based on last year's experience, I already know that just because I'm looking for you doesn't mean I'll be able find you, but I'll do my best.)

    There’s a rumor floating around that I am going. Yes, there is.

    I have my plane ticket reservations and I am already nervous! If I don’t implode before I get there, please watch for me!!

    I’m going, for the first time! I registered months ago, but the closer it gets, the more nervous I am – social anxiety is seriously ramping up!
    Hope to see you there, in the vast crowd.

    Ah! I *KNEW* I knew you from somewhere! You’re the very first blog listed in my Bloglines thing! Excellent! (By the way, you’re quite photogenic! http://www.flickr.com/photos/fluidpudding/3626564099/)
