So, Samer incited my internet nerd and tagged me for a meme. Because it’s not time consuming, doesn’t threaten to give me 7 years of bad sex if I don’t respond, and turns out kinda fun, I’m doing it. The concept is, you pick up the nearest book, turn to page 123, go to the [...]

The Women Who Tech Telesummit came and went so fast, I didn’t even really have time to be nervous. My panel, “Build an Online Campaign and Change the World,” was so quick and we got some great reception from it. I also attended three other sessions that were all very useful. My favorite was “Improve [...]

I’m really excited about this great event called the Women Who Tech telesummit. It was founded by Allyson Kapin, who is a founding partner of RAD campaign and an all-around great person.

One of my favorite SF bands, Halou, is working on a new record and taking full advantage of the internet by video blogging about their work. I think it’s a fascinating look into a band’s process.

So, putting the millions of times I’ve bashed people with blogs aside, here I am. I decided it might just be a good way to start writing music criticism (and whatever else I can) and getting my writing out there. I mean, hell, myspace works for bands, right? So here we go… This is my [...]
