@blogdiva thanks for all of your tweets about #UNGA2011 - it kept me informed without making me have to watch with rising blood pressure! ♥

Welcome to my site! I am your host, Liza Sabater.

Here you will find personal information about me such as a life in FAQs and a peek into my life with THING1 & THING2. The bulk of this site will be about my professional self, a portfolio that will continue to change and grow as I aggregate most of my past, present & future work.

What I'd like you to know, though, is that I built the site. I used ckDistro, a distribution I've created for my micro-publishing needs, based on the excellent Drupal, the open-source content & community management system. So as you find information on my experience as a blog publisher, communications strategist, digital content producer and web architect, take a look at the site itself. If you'd like to have a simple yet elegant solution to your web development & micropublishing needs, just drop me a note.

Thanks for stopping by,

Blog Publisher

As blog publisher of culturekitchen (2000) and Daily Gotham (2005), I have not only have had the privilege to pioneer two of the longest running political blogs in the United States, I've also become an expert in advocacy and citizen journalism.

Communications Strategist

Language matters when trying to shape public opinion around a social or political issue. I mine my experience as an educator, and social media curator to help clients identify opportunities for fine-tuning their message by better listening to and interacting with their communities.

digital news producer

The medium is the message in my style of reporting. Whether it is publishing opinion pieces, breaking stories or musing out loud, I do so with text, images, video and audio using a variety of content management and mobile platforms.

Website Architect

When I first heard in 2000 about these things we call "blog", I threw myself into the world of "micro" content management systems until I found a home in the open-source platform, Drupal. Six years later, I've developed my own distribution of Drupal to develop and design websites and publishing platforms.
