International Edublogging Women’s Day 2006

Celebration 10

Vera B Price

Somehow, it just seems so very appropriate to make my last post for my mother, Vera B Price. She passed away in August of 2004. I blogged about it here. I still miss her so. My post, Mamas Got a Brand New Blog, tells how this eighty-five year old woman decided to become a blogger. I treasure her blog, Vera’s Corner. One of her posts, Pieces of the Past, tells of her memories of her mother. Pieces of the past, we all should think about keeping such blogs for our families.

Celebrations Roll Call

Wednesday, March 8th, 2006

International Edublogging Women’s Day 2006
Celebration 9

I thank Josie Fraser for her call for us to blog about the women edubloggers who have influenced us. As I have focused on celebrations of this over the last week or so, I realized how much I have been influenced and how diverse the community of women edubloggers is. I try to make it a practice to point to good examples regularly but it was good to really reflect upon the impact of blogging for women. I quickly realized that I could never list all who need to be recognized and on this last day I want to point to some sites that I have either mentioned before in my blogging or will mention, in time. Then I will close with a blog that means a great deal to me. The person who wrote it had the most profound and meaningful influence on my life.I’ll make a separate post for that.

First, the links. I apologize for running out of time to write as I did on the previous eight posts blogging by women. I also apologize for the many links I’m sure I missed. The good news is that the list of women bloggers grows daily!
