………..Get Your Bowlher/Bolgher On……..
Just Because BlogHer is over on Saturday, July 25th doesn’t mean that I can’t keep the good times rolling. That’s why I’ll be a hostess at BowlHer keeping my fingers occupied between tweets, follows, friending, and linking up my blog and profiles with new contacts. Even if my finger polish needs a lift after a game of bowling, BowlHer has that covered as well.
What can knock over ten pins at the end of a 60-foot long bowling lane? A 16-pound, 8.5-inch diameter bowling ball. How can the content on my blog hit thousands of moms in one tweet? A very light- weight laptop, mac, iphone, or blackberry.
Before I tell you about all the great prizes you can take home with you from BowlHer, I thought I’d give a little overview about the game of bowling.
Bowling is one of the most popular sports in the world, a lot of fun and a team effort. Hey, that sounds a lot like why I like blogging, which is also a lot of fun but also about being part of a team! In bowling, players attempt to score the most points by rolling a ball along a flat surface in order to knock down objects called pins. In blogging, we send out tweets and links along a large bandwidth that we never see and hope to get as many “hits” as possible. There are several types of bowling games, but the official, and most popular, bowling game is ten-pin bowling.
In order to play the game of bowling properly, certain equipment is necessary. In order to be a key influencer in the blogosphere, a strong network is necessary. In order to build a strong network, events like BowlHer have been created. Get your game on with both old and new friends, but an opportunity to keep those new connections strong with great prizes.
