Call me a product-shilling whore, but this is really funny.

And yes, I’ve been fussing around with ‘Go Read It Today’ for about a year. I still can’t quite figure out how to integrate it properly into this blog, but for now at least, here’s another post. If you haven’t noticed, I’ve been doing it in my sidebar for a while now, but it doesn’t go out in my feed. I’m still working out the right balance for it all… Let me know if you have any suggestions :)
UPDATE: OK, now I’ve taken the ‘Go Read It Today’ links out of the sidebar. I’ll go back to posting them periodically. Let’s see how that works.
Good lord, you people are BRILLIANT! Now that’s the way to be BPA-free and economical. Wow! (Combine this perfect baby hack with my mother-in-law’s Cream Cheese Coffeecake recipe and you’ll be all set :)
Hey, does anyone know how Twitter is going to make any money? I love using it, but I’m concerned that they’ll fade away because as far as I can tell, they don’t have income other than VCs. How does that work? I wish they’d come out with a Pro version that has lots of cool features. I’d pay for it just in the hope that it would help them stay afloat!
Interesting story on Momlogic. They sound like real asshats. [Update: Why do I keep linking to posts which subsequently get taken down? It's a talent. In any case, it looks like a Cease and Desist letter is the reason the post was removed. Interestinger.]
And really, it’s a sickness how much I love i can has cheez burger. Those damned cats make me laugh EVERY DAY. They win my vote for Best Thing of All Things on the Internet. Srsly.
What happened to the Crazy Hip Blog Mamas? Why did they pack up their web site and go home? (Thanks Mel for the heads-up.) Any of you who were showing their BizRate/Shopzilla ad please note that it ended at the end of March ‘08 and you can take it down now.
Amen, ‘boundaries’ is precisely right. I’ll go out on a limb here and say that breastfeeding an 8 year old is just plain wrong. Yes, I am judging people who do it. I have opinions. The end.
Really? “Non-Mom“? That’s the move you want to make? So let’s see… we adopted one kid and had the other two via donor sperm. What kind of mom am I? What kind of dad is Craig? Get a fucking clue, Teleflora and NBC.
What a beautiful letter. You’re right WTM, this does make me feel better. “(By the way–Sony? You make a mean butthole camera monitor. Apparently my colon was viewed in high-def.)” I can’t stop laughing. Frakking toddlers. (Wait, at what age do they stop being toddlers?) Sigh, I love brothers.
HBM still hasn’t had her baby yet, but even during weeks of crappy pre-labor she can write a great post about her online circle of friends. BlogHer is going into the pay per post business?? I don’t get it. [UPDATE: No, I don't know why this post has been taken down, I only have guesses. You can all stop asking me now :) UPDATE TWO: Suebob answers in the comments below. ]
“We are an army of educated mothers who have finally stood up and said pay attention, this is important work, this is hard, frustrating work and we’re not going to sit around on our hands waiting for permission to do so. We have declared that our voices matter.” Fuck yes. If you are any kind of mom who blogs, just go read this today. And as an aside, I am about one minute away from starting to post pictures of my kids on this site. Heather’s exhilarating post is really helping me with my decision.
“Every time I get together with other bloggers I tell myself, THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!and thank my stars that I happened into this weird and all-consuming hobby that just happens to hook me up with really incredible women who strangely enough are a lot like me.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.
This mama loves this amazing adoption story. This is part 3 — are you keeping up? It is so very worth it.
I’m all for karma, but report him. That’s an awful story.
