Moblogging from my Centro at BlogHer

I've been in NYC for the past couple of days attending the BlogHer business conference, where 200+ women (and 10 brave men) are congregating to talk about all things blogging and social media.

This is my second year at BlogHer. Last year when I talked with BlogHer attendees about moblogging, most of them were either unaware they could blog from a mobile phone or they just didn’t really do it that often. This year more and more women are moblogging by starting with tools like Twitter, then transitioning to more complete blogging options like Typepad, WordPress and Google’s Blogger. One of the biggest reasons for the increase in moblogging is that having a mobile phone with a full keyboard (like the Palm Centro) makes it a lot easier. Also, moblogging is often necessary at conferences like this, where it’s sometimes hard to get on a clogged hotel network.

Just for the record, Ruby Red is the runaway favorite Centro color among these women, and no, it wasn’t so bad being one of 10 guys at BlogHer.
