BlogHer Recap – Yep, This Really Is Where I Belong

Bruce Jenner at BlogHer '10

I started out writing every single thing that happened every minute of every day, but it got too overwhelming. So instead I'm just going to try to sum it up in more general terms. BlogHer 2010 was the BEST BLOGHER I have ever attended. And this was my fifth year.
