The digital mom handbook : how to blog, vlog, tweet, and facebook your way to a dream career at home / by McClelland, Audrey Couto.(CARDINAL)475348; Padilla, Colleen.(CARDINAL)396253;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 227-230) and index."Mothers have been looking for the middle ground for more than half a century. Staying at home and raising the kids full-time isn't it. Working full-time and rushing home to tuck the kids in at 7 p.m. sharp ain't it either. Even part-time work outside the house can be a scramble for most women, as they try to "have it all" between 9 am and 5 pm. To work or not to work? That seems to be the bottom-line question for most women today. But, Audrey McClelland and Colleen Padilla are proving that the equation is changing.

Audrey and Colleen literally blogged, tweeted, skyped, vlogged, and facebooked their ways to the top. In THE DIGITAL MOM HANDBOOK they will show other moms how to find middle ground--via the frontier of the Internet--too. Do you want to be a booming six-figure eBay saleswoman? A 20-hour-a-week brand consultant? A local Twitter correspondent? The terms are yours to define. Money, hours-per-week, title--these don't dictate your Digital Mom success. Personal satisfaction does"--
