Calling all Ribs: save the date!
April 22nd, 2007

Next Saturday, I’ll be contributing to the Take Back The Blog blogswarm, hosted by Bruce at Crablaw,
…in support of the rights of women to participate fully in all aspects of our society, including specifically online in the world of blogging but indeed everywhere and at all times, day and night, without fear of harassment, intimidation, sexual harassment, online stalking and slander, predation or violence of any sort.
Bruce, you are a righteous rib, as is Renee in Ohio and her kick-ass TBTB logo.
However, dear Readers, you may be a little distracted at this point by the peculiar term “blogswarm.”
A “blogswarm” is when a bunch of people blog about the same crap ON PURPOSE! It is a premeditated thing, as opposed to the usual randomness that tends to rule the Internet. Order from chaos. Entropy. Call it whatever you want.
I want to call it an attempt to herd cats, but an ingenious one.
Now that we have context, I invite you to resume contemplating the delicious uppityness of a global blogorama entirely devoted to giving the big, feminist fuck-you to sexist online cowards everywhere.
If you have a blog, I also encourage you to join me in this most excellent blog-in. It just takes an email to Bruce, some bandwidth, and a little bit of your own personal uppity.
See you then!
