Awesome video that Sugar Entertainment did for our Adweek presentation
We released a new research report today that revealed that two-thirds of Gen X women chose Gen Y women as the most influential age group when it comes to defining trends in popular culture. Gen Y women, in turn, are discovering new brands and getting most of their style inspiration and product recommendations from blogs and social media.
we went to the pumpkin patch and they had a cool hay-maze. i picked out a wee little one for me and put it on my front door step to decorate for halloween like the other houses.

i'm learning to do "kicks and scoops", and go under water, and even have a piggy-back ride on teacher Sean. Mommy was the photographer - she did a good job and didn't even drop the camera in the water. i told her to never, ever run at the swimming pool. so she didn't.


i'm such a good big sister and helper. this was my first feeding. even though i don't have mommy-food, i can help feed juliet with a bottle.

we made a window in my house, so it won't be so dark and i can look out. am i cute?
Apologies for not posting this sooner, but Lisa and I have had some amazing life changing events and milestones over the past two weeks.
Claire Miller over at the New York Times wrote "Ad Shift Throws Blogs a Business Lifeline" on September 13th. Thanks to many of you for sending over such nice notes, it's good to know that the NY Times is still wildly read.
The article opened:
Lisa Sugar began blogging about celebrity gossip in her spare time four years ago. Now she and her husband, Brian, have a little media empire called, sensibly enough, Sugar Inc., with 12 blogs, 11 million readers a month and advertisers like Chanel and Sony.
I respect the hell out of what Lisa, Krista, Molly and the rest of the editorial team at Sugar do, day in and day out:
“It’s actually really hard creating compelling content that brings an audience,” Mr. Sugar said.
We also have been very fortunate to have world class investors:
“Perpetual movement is the essence of survival and prosperity online,” said Michael Moritz, the Sequoia investor who backed Google, Yahoo and Sugar. “If online media and entertainment companies don’t improve every day, they will just wind up as the newfangled version of Reader’s Digest — bankrupt.”
