Are you staying home during the BlogHer 2010 conference? Well, there is no reason to be down about it. Maya from Musings of a Marfan Mom and Stefany from ToBeThode are here to host the No-Go BlogHer party. This is guaranteed to be a great time and you can participate right from your sofa (or kitchen, office, heck even your bathroom if you want). This is the “official” No-Go BlogHer blog hop post. Here is what you need to do to participate:
- Answer the questions below on your blog and then link up that post in the linky that will at the bottom of this post. You will find the linky at ToBeThode or Musings of a Marfan Mom but you only need to link up once as it will be identical information.
- Grab the button for the No-Go BlogHer party and place it on your sidebar during the duration of the party. (If you have any problems doing that on your blog, let us know and we would be glad to help).
Here are the questions we want you to answer:
- When did you start blogging?
- Why did you start blogging?
- What is one thing you are going to do this week that is WAY cooler than going to BlogHer?
- Share a post that you think says a lot about you or is your favorite. (share the link in YOUR post so we all can see)
Once you post your answers on your own blog, please come back and link up that post. Then start hopping around and meeting some new bloggers. It would be great if you would leave a comments for everyone you visit regarding their answers (so they know you stopped by). Also, follow some blogs if you like them (ToBeThode and Musings of a Marfan Mom included)! If you are playing along, tweet about it using the hashtag #NoGoBlogHer please!

Tara Funair recently posted..I am a No-Go BlogHer Blog Hopper
Having alot of fun with this blog hop. I’ve been sitting at my kitchen table for the last hour and a half reading and following. I must say that while reading alot of these bloggers posts, I have laughed and even cried!! I love knowing that bloggers aren’t robots but they are real people! I mentioned that earlier on another blog’s comments section. I love meeting new bloggers, especially the ones that share my same interests.
Thanks so much for hosting. I love NYC but I like sitting at home in my PJ’s too
Thanks for the fun hop
Now a follower!
