BlogWorld 2009 had the innovative idea of hosting a multicultural panel. A clear sign of vision and pulse of the current situation in the U.S.A. I had the honor to be invited by Jose Villa from Sensis to represent the fastest growing group both online and offline: The Latino(a)s! During the session, I was often asked about the Latino blogosphere. What do we blog about? Which language do we use? Where are we? And so forth. This post is an attempt to answer these questions.

If I have said it once I have said it a thousand times, “We live in a Google world.”  It is true, we don’t order Chinese food, find directions to the store, or stalk old girlfriends without using Google.  Being findable in this world is important if you are trying to be found.  Businesses especially [...]
