Jules- having you call me a “social media guru”, however inaccurate:), made my night. I’m going to make a post this weekend about cool new mom communities and blogs that I’ve been learning about- would love to know if you have tried out any of these sites and what you think about them.
Amanda–my description of you is quite accurate. I will check out the communities you mention–just like I check out most of your findings. I haven’t spent any time on mom sites–ever–but I think I would enjoy it if I can wade past the newbies and find the more experienced battle axes like myself. I can’t get too jazzed up over toilet training issues when I am facing taking my first born off to college a week from today!
🙂 Best of luck with the move!
I definitely agree that there are a fair amount of new moms on these sites. Minti is interesting because it’s a space for you to write and read articles on parenting so it’s a bit grown up (like Hubpages for parents.)
Another interesting site to check out as a blogger is blogshares.com. I just found out that someone listed and “bought stock” in my blog. I’d definitely invest in some virtual shares of JulesPieri@wordpress.
