Mother’s Day was last month and to celebrate I hosted a special evening, Social Media Moms Nite out. In researching this event I found out that there were a lot of Mom bloggers in Ottawa. The reason mom blogger was that they were moms of different ages but blogged about their kids or hobbies not work or business. Now that it’s Father’s Day I thought that I would see what the Daddy bloggers’ are up to.  So with the same criteria in mind I trolled the web and Twitter.

So here’s a few dads that I came across.  Not a whole lot, it seems that Dads don’t seem too keen on talking about their kids and fatherhood they seem to talk about everything else but.

I did find a few so here’s some of them.

How using social media has helped me be a better dad

This is a great blog post by Jeremy Biser from the Remarkable Parents site.

“A few years ago, I didn’t even know what “social media” was.

I read the newspaper, a few magazines and when I went online it was for work or to manage my fantasy sports teams. I thought a blog was something that people used to share pictures with their family members, and My Space was the place where pervs and wannabe musicians hung out to seduce young girls.”

He talks about his ignorance about social media and how he wouldn’t have grounded his daughter for signing up for My Space. He would have still grounded her for lying about her age.

He is now a tech savvy parent teaching his friends and neighbors about social media.  He talks about the social media that he uses on a regular basis. He then states how does all this social media stuff help me be a better dad?

It’s a great read.
