Broad Summit 2009
Hello! I'm back from Broad Summit. Feeling lucky I was a part of it. I've been mentally debating between one-big-brain-dump-about-the-weekend-post and and a collection of shorter posts over the next week or so and I've decided to go with the collection. So expect to hear bits and pieces — about the attendees, the agenda and the sponsors of Broad Summit — over the next little while.
Starting with this: the retreat was very thoughtfully put together. Every detail attended to. For example, each night when we'd head back to our rooms, attendees would find a little gift on their pillows. The second night it was the hand-colored, signed print featured above. Created by Eric Rewitzer of 3 Fish Studios. Isn't it lovely?
My sincerest thanks to Maggie Mason, Helen Jane Hearn, Aubrey Sabala and Laura Mayes for putting it together.
If you're impatient/curious to know more about the weekend right. this. minute., I've got photos on my Flickr page.

oooh looks like you ladies had a killer time!!!!!!!!!
Looks wonderful. Can't wait to read more about it!
how do you get invited to these events? Can anyone attend? Is there an event cost? I know that you have attended several blog events throughout the years I have been reading your blog and this is the first time I have asked. I hope you will answer. Thanks!
Hi Kim. Thanks for the question. I do attend several events throughout the year and each has different policies. For many conferences (like BlogHer of Mom2Summit) anyone is welcome to buy a registration pass and attend. For other events, it's invitation only. And some events are sort-of press junkets — but adapted for Bloggers. They're invite only and all expenses paid and attendees are introduced to new products they might want to share with their readers.
