Site Rave: MomsLikeMe.com

I'm always on the lookout for cool new sites, ones that help enrich our lives, or just offer cool features. As a mom I'm always looking for new mom sites that provide us with info and connect us to one another. New moms need support from other moms who are going through the same things as them and of course from ones who've "been there, done that." But I'm quite proud to present you with MomsLikeMe.com.


I actually work on this site and take great pride in what we're bringing to the masses. Currently we have sites in 27 cities and before the fall is over we'll have triple that. The concept is simple connect moms in ways they never could before on a local level.

Give moms resources like boards/forums to post questions for help and advice or just to share random stories. Help them find other like-minded moms with groups and let them organize calendars easily, as well. Let them carve a personal space on this social networking site with a personal profile and content aggregator for their posts and photos. Finding a pediatrician referral, sharing photos, getting advice and arranging playdates has never been easier.

Check out MomsLikeMe.com for a list of cities where there are sites and check out what cities will be rolling out over the next couple months.

Site Rave: Shop It To Me

I'm not often WOWed by a website these days. I feel like I've seen it all, and while some sites have cool design, etc. most are just reinventions of things that already existed. All that ended when I was referred to ShopItToMe.com!

Obviously I like to shop, and like any GOOD shopper I appreciate a good sale. But who has the time to track down and even keep up with who's having a sale when? I think the only sale I know to count on every year is Nordstrom's Half Yearly Sale!!!! You simply tell ShopItToMe.com your favorite brands and items you shop for. You can select women, men and children's clothing. Then you select your favorite brands, they have an exhaustive list of 537 brands, your favorite ones should be listed -- Gap, 7 for All Mankind, Nine West, Marc Jacobs, the list goes on ... I was really impressed with their selection.

Then you tell it your size and what items you shop for, ie dresses, pants, shoes, accessories, there's almost nothing this site hasn't thought of. Lastly of course you create a log in and store your personal data. After you complete registration you will receive a daily email chock full of items you would be interested in. Every day I look forward to this email, and it's probably the only one I can say that about, and every day it doesn't disappoint. Now if only it could help me hide the purchases from my husband we would be cooking.

You are seriously missing out if you haven't signed up for ShopItToMe.com, see for yourself, if you don't like it you can just deactivate your account later. I promise you will like it though!
