If I have not posted for some time on my personal blog TechMamas.com, it’s because there is something keeping me busy. My wonderful family is always a priority and those with kids that just entered 6th grade (like my son just did) understand what a big transition that is.
This middle school transition would be so bloggable if I had not already promised my son to keep things under wraps. In fact, my tween is probably reading this post on his smartphone right now – so I may as well say hi to my son: “Hi sweetie..Whoops, I am not supposed to call you that in public. Sorry”.
Let’s just say that kids these days are skipping from kids to teenagers, and it happens fast. As my dear friend with a newly “teenaged” kid told me last year: Put on your seatbelt. And I did.
On the business front, my most exciting announcement is that I joined on as Chief Technologist of a sister site to the fabulous Cool Mom Picks (a top shopping blog for parents).
The amazing founders of Cool Mom Picks Liz Gumbinner and Kristen Chase were planning to develop a sister tech shopping blog for parents when I happened to call them saying I would looove to work with them on such a venture. Wella: Cool Mom Tech!
Does it show how excited I am? If I could add audio, it would sound like cyber-shreaks of joy! Check our our awesome Cool Mom Tech team, I am so honored to work with them (another cyber shreak).
Here is a link to a post about Cool Mom Tech on BlogHer written by an fabulous tech mom herself (I have a soft spot for tech moms) Little Tech Girl Kris Cain : “Get the Real Scoop on Technology with Cool Mom Tech“.
Here are juicy details from the Cool Mom Tech About page:
“Cool Mom Tech is the intersection of tech and style, of parenting, practicality and fabulosity, brought to you by the same moms behind the influential shopping and design site, Cool Mom Picks. Plus a few more who really know their tech stuff.
We’re not techies who parent, we’re moms who use tech in our everyday lives. Same as you. Same as millions of mothers who are online every day.”

Even without saying anything I can tell that Cool mom tech will be a great stop over for techy, caring and loving mom.
I guess this is the best place also to make; we -kids know about their moms. Would it be?
Knowing the right way to construct a loyal readership together with your blog is incredibly very important if you would like your blog to thrive. It’s all about the folks, and ensuring they may be informed of your respective weblog and enjoy your subject material.
This is such a great idea! I love all things tech-minded, especially if they help keep me organized! Congratulations on an exciting new role- sounds like a lot of fun!
