In other news of my world: I've been chosen as one of the Real Hot 100 Women!

Dang, to be listed among such fabulous luminaries on the list, and to be plucked out of over 350 amazing women. Many thanks to Robert Greenwald and Evan Derkacz who nominated me, and the friends who humored and edited me as I wrote my self-plug. ;-)

I'm here at the Personal Democracy Forum Conference, and just some quick observations… while there's way more women here that there was last year, the crowd is still overwhelmingly white. I mean… like, REALLY white. Nothin' against white people or anything (many of my friends are white, HAHA)… it's just that it's sort of frustrating to hear people yak about the digital revolution when it's essentially middle to upper class white people talking to each other.

On the upshot, I finally got to meet Jill from Feministe, who is one of my biggest online heroines. I got all flustered. (Warning, mutual blog-crushing happening.)
