Girl Geek Dinner's Blog Challenge


It has been talked about for a few months, idea's floating around between emails and Twitter and now it's finally here! The Winnipeg Girl Geek Blog Challenge!

For those who don't know a blog challenge is just a community of like minded people that encourage, comment and give feedback to fellow bloggers. Since this is focused on local girl geeks I am very excited to get to know all of the other techy ladies that are out there.

This week's challenge: Reasons for Blogging.

I have several reasons for blogging. I find it a great way to record my thoughts and feelings on any given day and revisit them. Whether it is a personal post, business related of a review of an event or equipment it is a great way to keep track of and REMEMBER what was happening in my life at that time.

Another reason I blog is with my small business Smash-Art-Graphic Design, Web and Print it is one of my missions to remain 'transparent' to my clients. Meaning that I am open and honest about my business and my life, there is nothing hidden up these sleeves!

The most important reason I am blogging right now is to create a community with other like minded people to share experiences, resources and support. I know from working on my own in a home office it can become a very lonely profession. Also I do not know any other female PHP wizards, do you?

So cheers to the Winnipeg Girl Geek Blog Challenge! Let's get this party started!

  1. I'm glad you've joined the challenge, Ashley! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your posts. Oh, and I love the fish-tank on your sidebar, I think I could play with that for hours.
