Lucia Freitas [pt] is organizing a BlogCamp for Brazilian women bloggers. “Our idea is to bring together what I feel to be a 'silent majority' on the blogosphere, a while before BlogCamp Brazil”, she explains in another blog. Right now there is a poll to choose a name for the event, which may happen in August. Among the suggestions are SheCamp and LaFemmeCamp.
