Blogging the Debates

The first debate finally came and went, and it was fun to spend time viewing both candidates while talking off and online. You can see the MOMocrats' live chat, the BlogHer open thread/live blog, and my twitter feed for what I wrote live - it was mostly casual responses.

Over the weekend, I plan to use the in-video blogging tools from VoterWatch's bloggingthedebates.com site and I should be able to embed some of that here.

I'll be doing more of this type of coverage for the other debates, and possibly liveblogging for MOMocrats. Stay tuned.

Coverage from Democratic National Convention

I'm still catching-up from covering the Democratic National Convention, but I've done a terrible job logging all of what I wrote about the experience and I've been getting several requests to summarize and link to the posts from the week. So belatedly, here they are:

Also, here's a post about a panel I was on for WomenCount in The Big Tent: Cracks in the Glass Ceiling: A WomenCount Panel. Erin Kotecki Vest of BlogHer, also on the panel, wrote a post about it including Q&A following the discussion. I heard through the grapevine the entire video was supposed to be up at The Big Tent YouTube channel, but I have yet to find that.
