Blog Feedback

Hi All,



It’s been so much fun getting feedback about what you want on the blog.



Don’t worry I’m going to be doing almost all of what people have suggested. Plus I have a couple little fun curve balls that I also threw in!



One idea that I was toying with was having a blogger directory by location.



This way you could check out NY, NJ, CA, etc and see what design bloggers are in that area. It could help you arrange get togethers and learn more about your local blog community.




I know I would use it. Being a small business owner that works from home means I’m alone a lot. I would enjoy knowing the other bloggers that live in my area and have the same interests as me. Plus if I was going on vacation to a different place I would enjoy meeting up with new bloggers!



What are your thoughts?

Think this is a fabulous idea! I live in CT and I honestly am always looking to see if there are any bloggers in the immediate area! I would love to create a network of local bloggers!

AWESOME idea! I work from home too and it does get lonely sometimes! Meeting other bloggers around Minnesota would be fantastic! And that's so true about going on vacation and seeing who lives there. I LOVE that! Do it do it! :)

Great idea! Would you be doing it for Canada too, or just US?

What a wonderful idea! I'm looking to do interior design freelance from home and that world be a great way to connect to people in the same area as me. Also, I live in Lancaster, PA and there is no resource like that for local bloggers that I know of. I say go for it!

I think that is a wonderful idea, but I cannot imagine how to compile something like that. One of my readers wrote on my comment post today that there are over 100,000 new blogs a day of course not all design related but that was amazing to read that. I like your idea a lot! Happy weekend to you,Kathysue

Sounds fabulous...love the idea, but I can't imagine the work that would go into such a fabulous resource! As for meeting, let's get a date on the calendar...for lunch and the D & D or someplace on LI!

I LOVE that idea. I am always trying to find other blogs in my area and I have been wanting to organize something. I vote YES!! Could you include Canadian blogs too?

Thanks for the support ladies.

I would be doing it for the US broken down by state and then Canada/International would have it's own separate categories, but I don't think I would break those down further than that.

I would also only be doing it for interior design related blogs.

I love that idea Camila! I have been trying to find design bloggers in the Baltimore/DC area and have had a hard time. It would be so helpful to have a directory.

This is a great idea! I'm always interested in Toronto blogs because they can offer you a differnet perspective on your own city rather than more general inspiration.

I would love this! We all know where the big-deal bloggers are located, but it would be fun to connect with others that I haven't heard of before or didn't realize they were in my area. Seattle seems to be lacking and I'd love to organize a meet-up here!

I think that's a fantastic idea. So much time is spent alone yet you meet so many nice people on line. Doing the shelter redesign project was a fantastic time getting to know some of my fellow bloggers. Great idea!!

Such a great idea. It seems like all the blogs I love are out of state (or country), so it would be great to be able to just browse local bloggers, and maybe even meet some people in real life.

I would DEFINITELY use that, I am always curious to meet other bloggers and esp those in my area. Would be fun to instantly know who to look up when I am traveling as well!

I think this a grrat idea!! I seems most of the blogs I read are on the East Coast and so are most of my readers - lol

So it would be cool to see where everyone is located!

ps: I have a fun giveaway going on right now! :)
