How much time do women spend blogging and socializing online?

I am very curious about how moms spend their time and how they go through each day. I am the type of person who enjoys quiet time at home, so I guess because I find myself constantly going and going between family and work that sometimes I just wonder if there are much other people like me out there (duh, of course there are!). So, I asked my Work It! Mom (WIM) community how much time they spend blogging or socializing online. I spend probably about 2 hours a night on the average doing these things and sometimes I feel a little guilty about it because there are probably more things I can be doing around the house and such. Blogging and things do help me keep my sanity on a day to day basis though, so that feeling quickly goes away! Here are some responses from the WIM comunity. http://www.workitmom.com/question-2554

Mom Blog Network™ Releases Dynamic Widget and New Tools for The Mom Blogger Community

Providing the latest technology for bloggers to self-promote and reach more readers by making it easier to share content and grow viral audience.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 12, 2008 -- Mom Blog Network™ (www.momblognetwork.com) is proud to introduce the latest developments for its members: a dynamic, customizable widget and a multi-platform 3rd party blog integration tool. Both of these new features are designed to give mom bloggers additional opportunities to promote their posts across the web, reaching more readers and driving traffic.

The widget was created to be an important channel for extended network syndication as it dynamically pulls in the "hottest" headlines from MomBlogNetwork.com and displays them in a stylish sidebar module. "We thought it would be great to give all bloggers and other site owners the chance to conveniently offer their readers the latest headlines and links to a broad and diverse range of mom bloggers," says Andra Davidson, co-founder and president of MothersClick.com, the social network and parenting site which operates the network. "Our motto is: 'What moms are talking about' and, in the true spirit of community, the widget really helps our members distribute their content more widely."

The integration tool was developed with the active blogger in mind. It provides the elegance of inline promotion through the simplicity of cut-and-paste, easily adding some code to any existing blog. This step is required only once and, thereafter, the system automatically creates a "voting" button which appears on every new post.
