There is a site I'm part of called The New Jane it's a network of blogs by women. If you check out the Ads sidebar of my blog, you'll see an ad I've got from them. Right now there's about 200 some odd members and their goal is to reach at least 1.000. I suggest you check it out, especially if you want new blogs to read or if you want to get traffic to your blog.
The New Jane has a sister site of sorts called BlogsByWomen.org. Check them out as well. I've found an interesting new blog or two through these sites, so you probably will too!
Of course, if you join, I'd love to be the person who referred you. Click the "add your blog" link located under the Jane ad here on my blog.
