I couldn't resist writing that title because there is so much left unsaid of the power of social networks.
So Lindsay proudly posted that image [1], celebrating her sell to Time.com [2] --a photograph they found of Amanda via Flickr [3]. Flickr, by the way, has become a social networking site disguised as photo storage company.
Anyhow, she took that photograph of Amanda while she and I and a whole gaggle of political and entertainment bloggers were in Amsterdam. We were part of the Bloggers in Amsterdam [4] group, paid by Holland.com [5] and sponsored by BlogAds [6].
Many women in the Feminist Bloggers Network [7] know each other now for more than a couple of years. Women tend to operate social networks and powerlines a bit differently than men, and so our presence in mainstream media has not been as forceful as the handful of male-run blogs the mainstream journos tend to call "The Blogs" [8].
Well, we not be as prominent in the public eye as some of us would like to be, but make no mistake --we're everywhere.
Want proof? MAJeff, the last quote in that Time.com article happens to be a FBN member who's been on a blogging (but not commenting) sabbatical; and used to be a key player in our blog.
Just saying.
Check out my photo of Amanda and me in Amsterdam after the jump ...
