In my previous posts, I mentioned how Latina mommy bloggers or “mami blogueras” are becoming a very powerful online community because of their ability to review products, communicate with one another and offer advice through their own experiences of being a parent. General Mills created a website earlier this year called Que Rica Vida (What a Good Life). Created for Latina mothers, you can find recipes, tips, coupons and information about healthy foods for your family and its all in Spanish while at the same time help promote General Mills products. So far, it’s been getting positive reviews, especially from Latina mommy bloggers because they strategically targeted this community to help build their online presence, a great idea on their part.

My blog post made my college newspaper!
I happened to walk into my office last week when a co-worker told that I made the my college newspaper the UTD Mercury. I was very surprised so I went and picked up a copy of the newspaper and wouldn’t you know it, a copy of a blog post is displayed in their “Blog Bites” section. It’s a post I did on Latin cooking awhile back with an emphasis on my desire to cook traditional Puerto Rican cooking. The copies of the article is displayed below and highlighted in yellow. Normally, I am a strong believer of online media and the transition away from print to the internet, but in this case I can honestly say that there can be a balance of the traditional with the new. I manage to get a free promotion from the newspaper and hopefully some more followers to the my blog.
