<p>In other words, don&#8217;t screw up a good thing. Or, don&#8217;t do something that&#8217;ll get you bad PR.</p>
<p>Which is just what Johnson and Johnson did over the past week.</p>
<p>They are throwing a &#8220;BabyCamp&#8221; for mommy bloggers. Sounds great, right?</p>
<p>But a couple of problems.</p>
<p>1. You can&#8217;t bring your baby. Dumb.<br />
2. They scheduled it at the same time as BlogHer. Double dumb.<br />
3. They disinvited a couple of bloggers, one who had a baby, and another who was speaking at Blogher. Triple dumb.</p>
<p><a href="http://maryamie.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!9592F3DEF41537A3!4356.entry">Maryam wraps up the mess and explains</a> what&#8217;s going on now. I&#8217;m Maryam&#8217;s husband and she&#8217;s decided to go to BabyCamp with her mom, who&#8217;ll take care of Milan while she attends sessions and such (her mom did the same while Maryam worked at CES&#8217;s BlogHaus, it&#8217;s a real advantage to have someone like that).</p>
<p>Speaking of which, I hate saying &#8220;Maryam&#8217;s my wife.&#8221; Sounds like I own her or something. Truth is actually the reverse. 🙂</p>
