11 Cool Things You Need to Click On Today

As you can see above, I'm packing a fresh new order of blog business cards (and a fresh new card holder! #obsessed), which can only mean one thing: For the next two days, I'm going to be at BlogHer, a massive digital conference here in New York City. I went last year when it was in San Jose, and was not sure if I was going to attend this year since I just went to this conference in April. But it's right in my backyard! So, how could I say no?

Are any of you guys attending BlogHer this year? Definitely let me know! Or if you see me, please stop me and say hi. Nothing makes me happier!

• A beautiful Leaving New York essay (also now known as a LNYE) by my former coworker, Ramona. Especially loved this line: "In New York there are at any one time, 6,000 people who are better than you at the only thing you're good at." So true.

• Honey sriracha chicken salad? Yes, please.

• The app that blocks everything Kardashian-related from your browser.
