# Bathroom Blogfest: History

![Bathroom Blogfest Blog](https://www.simplemarketingnow.com/hs-fs/images/bathroomblogfest2011.jpg?width=280&height=334&name=bathroomblogfest2011.jpg)

**Bathroom Blogfest** was launched in 2006 and has taken place every year since then until 2012.

It began as the brainchild of Stephanie Weaver, *Experienceology* author and consultant, and Susan Abbott, business consultant and consumer researcher in Toronto. They wanted to generate awareness for bloggers passionate about the customer experience at a time when blogging was more experimental.

By writing blog posts, tweeting, and creating Facebook updates, bloggers participating in the **Bathroom Blogfest** call attention to an intensely compelling topic and one that has universal relevance and appeal regardless of the industry or blog area of focus.

### Each **Bathroom Blogfest** focuses on a new theme.

- The **2009 Bathroom Blogfest** celebrated "*Flush The Recession & Plunge Into Forgotten Spaces*." [See [Bathroom Blogfest 2009 Draws 20 Bloggers To Focus on Recession & Cleanliness In Overlooked Spaces](https://www.prlog.org/10380165-bathroom-blogfest-2009-draws-20-bloggers-to-focus-on-recession-cleanliness-in-overlooked-spaces.html).]

- The **2010 Bathroom Blogfest** celebrated the theme of '*Mad Men*' and stuck in the 60s with even more bloggers participating! [See [Bathroom Blogfest 2010 Draws 33 Bloggers, 40 Blogs to Focus on Experiences 'Stuck in the 60s'](https://www.prlog.org/11005865-bathroom-blogfest-2010-draws-33-bloggers-40-blogs-to-focus-on-experiences-stuck-in-the-60s.html).]

- The **2011 Bathroom Blogfest** urges participants to "*Climb Out!"*. [See [Bathroom Blogfest 2011 Urges 33 Bloggers to 'Climb Out', Reinvent Customer Experience](https://www.prlog.org/11697761-bathroom-blogfest-2011-urges-33-bloggers-to-climb-out-reinvent-customer-experience.html).] It included a fantastic Twitter Chat with #KBTribeChat, too! 

- The **2012 Bathroom Blogfest** has just been announced! The [2012 Bathroom Blogfest focuses on "Still Climbing Out!](https://simplemarketingnow.com/content-talks-business-blog/bid/136085/Are-You-In-For-Bathroom-Blogfest-2012-Still-Climbing-Out)"
