On to #BlogHer Day 2 – Girls Code Too!
I’ve been too busy today to write anything so far, which I think is a very good thing!
I spent this morning, and early afternoon, in GeekLab sessions, learning all about the inner workings of WordPress. I think I may actually have learned enough that I know now why you get that 404 page if you try to leave a comment, although I’m not about to fix it on the fly, I need to dig in, learn a bit more php first, and so on. But this has been a lot of fun, in the past two days I’ve gone to sessions on PHP, Apache Server, htaccess, and CSS. SO helpful.
I was also interviewed today for a segment on PBS’ Frontline about “Digital Life.” Pathetically, I have had a number of dating experiences that have unintentionally popped up due to meeting people online. I’ve dated people I’ve met through ICQ, Friendster, and IRC, and really, not all of the experiences were terrrible (although, as I pointed out to them, I’m still single, so what’s that tell you?). The producer was laughing, but hopefully that’s a good thing. The documentary will air on PBS sometime in January 2010, but bits and pieces will be online in a few weeks – I will post a link here as soon as it’s out.
Tonight there are parties and more parties, I’m sure I’ll end up at a few. Last night I ‘took it easy’ (relatively speaking), and only went to the official cocktail party here, and the Blogalicious party over at Lush in Macy’s. It was very cool to meet the LawMom ladies, though, and totally worth the cab ride over. Plus…Lush? Say that and you’ll get me anywhere.
All in all, this is just an awesome experience, and I’m so glad I came.
