I started blogging in 2003 about nonprofits and social media and started second blog about Cambodia, “Cambodia for Kids” after the arrival of my daughter, Sara and discovering that there was a vibrant community of bloggers in Cambodia. Here’s a video and blog post I wrote for Blogher back then.

No, I'm not blogging on the plane! So, she graciously agreed to participate in our panel and do a quick interview for me so I could "pro blog it" for BlogHer. Why did you start blogging? It is a personal blog. Blogging seemed like the easy answer and now it has evolved into what I do for a living.

During my conversation with Rose, she told me about a panel she was on, that had a mainly women audience, and how surprised she was by how many women had questions about blogging basics. I started thinking, sounds like there are a lot of women out there who would like to start a blog, but don't know how. www.brittbravo.com blog women

In early July, I posted about a Basic Blogging for Women Workshop I'd be teaching this fall, but after talking to some prospective students, I decided that it was important to find a space where everyone could be on a computer, so I changed the date and the venue so that we can be in a computer lab. 125 if received after October 9th.

I blogged it and was initially very excited! But when I realized it would take a long time before a small NGO working in a country, like say, Cambodia, might be able to purchase a small number of them (less than 100) to outfit a school, I was disappointed.

I've been thinking about how bloggers can use their blogs during the holiday season to support organizations that they care about, like Chez Pim has done for UNICEF with the Menu for Hope. My fellow BlogHer co-editor, Beth Kanter , has launched a fundraising campaign using ChipIn. She sits on their board.

The last BlogHer Conference session I went to yesterday, before leaving early to go to a wedding, was about using blogging for Community Assistance. Your blog needs to be a place to “help the helper.” Work with traditional media and blogs to get the word out about your work. You don’t have to create a nonprofit or NGO.

Last month I wrote a short post for Blogher, Roadies for a Cause , about a nonprofit called Lokahi Outreach , that partners with organizations like the ONE campaign and Oxfam to help them do grassroots campaigning on the road. The organization's founder, Brande Jackson, took the time to answer my Solutionary Women e-interview questions.
