Shortly before the Blogher July 2005 conference, I got a new digital camera that came with a video feature. There has been online conversation during the past couple of weeks on vlog list , Netsquared , TechSoup and Blogher. Save the Children has posted one of the 60 second posts on Youtube. Here's a synthesis.

I'm working on what has become my annual holiday post at BlogHer on the topic: Helping kids understand why it is better to give than to receive. I have many examples from my own children and those of Sharing Foundation stakeholders - many who are adoptive parents and have encouraged their children to give back to Cambodia.

You don't necessarily see women keynote at technology conferences (well accept for women focused technology conferences like blogher ), but Geoff was trying hard ensure a gender balanced program and succeeded. Geoff Livingston invited me to keynote the conference along with Shel Israel , author of Twitterville. This is just a sampling.

safety issues and what parents should know about their children's media use. I'm doing a bit of research on this topic for BlogHer for Earth Day that will encourage community members to create "green themed" videos with their kids. In terms of web 2.0 safety resources, I mentioned Larry Magid's site, Connect Safely.

She cited statistics from National Science Foundation Studies. My fellow blogher, Lisa Williams , disagreed on this point. "Raising children isn't a special job, it just takes planning?" Even if you have a balance with your spouse and childcare options, it is hard to balance both demanding work and demanding children.

I attended the " Twenty-Something Meet Up " at the BlogHer Conference. If you work in nonprofits and track relevant research, you no doubt have come across the Social Citizen Blog from the Case Foundation and the paper, Social Citizen , from Allison Fine. Even though I'm more like twenty-something times 2.5, Why did I go?

I ended up discovering a program, at New College of California, a couple of years later, when I was producing arts benefits for social change, especially for women and children living with HIV, this was about 1989 and 1990. One will be for mothers who are mourning the loss of their children who died in gunfights in Oakland.
