What a weekend this has been! Blogalicious 2009 was an amazing gathering of social media women of color in Atlanta, GA.
There was so much learning, networking, and fun that I will have to blog about this is “at least” two posts.
First, the conference was held at the W Hotel in Midtown. The rooms were fabulous, as well as, guests services. Usually you find hotel conference room temperature to be either too hot or too cold. They had a perfect balance for the long day of sessions that we had. The food was even extraordinary. This was not your usual dry chicken and seasonal veggies. We had actual food with flavor and a wide variety. Two thumbs up to the W Hotel Midtown.
Mamalaw, which organized the whole event, did an excellent job with selecting topics, speakers, and event planning. My hat is off to these ladies. I can’t imagine what kind of sweat and tears it took to pull this off, but they had a passion for bringing women of color together to emphasize our influence in today’s market.
The networking was remarkable and everyone seemed very willing to help one another move to the next level. This is what I found refreshing, in that, there was no noticeable competition or heirs put on toward one another. There is plenty of room in the blogsphere and social media network to go around.
The speakers were incredible and I will post separately on that so that I can give detailed information on what inspired me the most. The sponsers were very generous and willing to learn how the minority community can influence the sale and promotion of their products. We also saw awesome presentations from three companies who are actively promoting to a more diverse community within their companies.
1. Mattel- The So In Style Barbie which represents African-American flavor by introducing dolls with different textures of hair, fuller lips, and a range of skin tones, was introduced to us at the conference. Mattell also gave each one of us a doll to take home to our family.
2. Disney- We got a sneek peek of the Princess and the Frog which is the story of an African-American girl who has dreams of having her own business and how dreams really can come true.
3. American Airlines- Presented BlackAtlas.com which is a site geared toward highlighting African and African-American culture all around the globe. The site is not up yet but this is one project that they are currently working on.
I will be posting more about the inspirational and educational speakers and what I learned the most about attending this conference. And oh yeah, pictures!!!

Just thought i would say hello and have a very nice day!!
This article gave us a significant Brainstorm session of all the chances we could make use of on our blog.
Hi just thought i would tell you something.. This is twice now i’ve landed on your blog in the last 3 days searching for completely unrelated things. Spooky or what? If you wishto swap the links with us please let me know.
This article is very important to me, and I like it very much, I will add it to my favorites.
Amazing webpage! I dont believe Ive witnessed every one of the angles of this subject the way youve pointed them out. Youre a true star, a rock star guy. Youve got so much to say and know so much about the theme which i believe you should just teach a class about it…HaHa!
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
Hi, Thanks. I was struggling with the same problem. Solved now Regards.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
I think your opinions are quite interesting, I enjoy reading what you write. Hope to hear more from you. Subscribed.
Your web site is top-notch I will have to read it all, thank you for the diversion from my classwork!
Where is it, i need you just read more about this article, thank you.

Interesting. Thanks for that, however that is not the limit of my appreciation. I am afflicted with color blindness (deuteranopia in my case). I mostly use Safari browser (unsure if that changes anything), and far too many websites are hard to comprehend on account of a poor range of colors used. In your case, as the selection of colors is fine, the site is amazingly tidy and easy to read.
Fantastic blog! I definitely love how it’s uncomplicated on my eyes and also the data is well written. I am wondering how I might be notified whenever a new post has been made. I have subscribed to your rss feed which really should do the trick! Have a nice day!

I would have to say yes to both of your questions. You can refinancing your current home and pull cash out to put down on the new home. You can also rent out the current home to off set your monthly obligations. So, you will be getting cash out the home and getting a tenant to pay your current mortgage. But, if you can get a tenant to rent out your home in the time you have to move. Your mortgage lender would simply have to make sure your debt to income ratios will allow you to take on two mortgages. As for the BK most lender would require you to have it discharged for at least 24 months. The lenders that would allow you to get a loan with a BK discharged for a couple of day would give you a higher rate as well as a lower loan amount. Which basically means you’ll have to put down more money then you’d like too.

Just about all I can think about is tobacco. I really don’t plan to take a drag and if perhaps somebody offered one here and now, I would not take it. I am in a pretty awful state of mind and have been having trouble staying asleep nevertheless I understand I need to end up tough. The e-cigarettes may make it easier in the end.
I have not had a smoke in 6 years. The ugliest aspect concerning stopping smoking is going to be starting couple of weeks. Fortunetly that stuff didn’t last and stuff got better every day because of the e cigarettes. Don’t stop trying. Please keep trying and you inevitably you will live a healthier life once and for all.
Hi, Tom here. I totally agree with what you said in the primary part, but I can’t say that I trust the whole post in general. Could you please tell me what study material you have used when writing this blog post (magazines, textbooks, reports etc.)? Fine looking internet site you’ve got here. Anyways I am subscribing to your weblog, cheers!
I really enjoyed this post. You explained this topic very well. I really love your blog and I will definitely bookmark it! Keep up the super posts!
A topic near to my heart thanks, i’ve been wondering about this subject for a while.
Hello, I was actually astounded this morning when I saw your weblog post in my feed reader. This is exactly what I was searching for, I even forwarded this to my friend. Cya! Jessica
There is a lot of great content here. Approximately how many view per day do you get?
Thank you for writing on this article. Using Bing for the first time, found your blog.
I smoked cigarettes for forever. I realize it injures my overall health and so I must quit smoking but it’s literally impossible. None of the stop smoking tools worked for me. Then I heard about the e-cigs. It has fortunetly saved my life. No longer breathing poisons feels extraordinary!
I stopped cold turkey over the weekend and it is starting to affect me now. My boyfriend says I will not do it but I’m so confident about it I won’t fail. This morning I began having discomfort inside my belly and I genuinely need a cig. I can’t give up since I am quitting smoking for our young children. I am blessed to have the electronic cigarette. It has been a big bonus to me.
Great, I have already bookmarked your this page…Now I don’t have enough time for read but by reading beginning part I must say…it was a positive start .. Would love to read further too…Thanks for great post!
Hi, was just browsing through the internet looking for some information and came across your blog. I am impressed by the information that you have on this blog. It shows how well you understand this subject. Bookmarked this page, will come back for more. You, my friend, ROCK!!!
I don’t seem to post on most blogs because they aren’t worth the time of day to me. Please keep updating.
Way back I used shaving to remove my excessive hair unfortunetly it was so stressfull that I wanted to find something else. I gave electrolysis a try and it was somewhat but was very expensive. So I took a couple months comparing the silk n sensepil styles. I actually used the no no hair removal and turned out being absolutely suprised with the results. It provided me permanent hair removal at an ultra low price. I certainly recommend it to anybody in place of waxing.
Good entry thanks, like your blog design too. Is it wordpress?
I have been initially treated with Ipl that isn’t the best method for hair removal. I started off with whole lower body hair removal. I visited a great MD who applied a powerful early model fractionated laser machine but was left having blotchy spots. And then I chose to invest in a silk’n sensepil. I’m pleased and will be going on to other areas of my body soon. Their pricing as well fit my budget allowed which is really a substantial perk.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
