Great Job Laura,

You looked like you were having a blast.

Hey, I know that even Amanda Congdon was there... why didn't you interviewed she too ;(?

BTW, a little rant here, why is there the need to make a woman only Blogging conference (besides Robert Scoble)?

Is there really still a need for a sexual separation, expecially on the Web?

Amanda was there but not doing interviews just yet-- but we chatted and she's a super cool chick. As for the "womens" conference thing, I cant really answer that but it is inspiring to see such a great group of girls supporting each other in a traditionally male arena Smiley

Hey, that was classic. Great show. It was super funny! That girl Megan was hilarious.

As always, it's a great pleasure to watch Laura work.

I thought most of the people featured were completely certifiable - it must have been a trip doing all those interviews (stuff in my vagina?!)

Maryam Scoble's blog is at maryamie.spaces.live.com. It's a very interesting blog even when it doesn't talk about Robert. Smiley

You should really have interviewed her BTW.

BlogHer is not just for women. There were men there. I think that the event is largely a reaction to the typical blogging event that is almost all men.

great video, it turned out well. It was quite an intersting conference for me.

I have just posted a "Blogher 06 Box Set" at The McVlog (http://www.mcvlog.com ) with a two part report and seven more extensive interviews as well.

All the best
Daniel
