Oh, and what about those women on the Internet?

Since I went so gaga over dada yesterday, I knew it was only right to highlight moms.

It is without a doubt, no secret, that moms are taking over the Internet.   In some stat that was shared with me verbally by somebody (yes, its that reliable) it was said that women between the ages of 25 - 45 make up something like 40 of the... you know what... I don't even remember.  So, I found the info-graphic to detail my point.

You can read it but nonetheless, 53% of the adult female population participate in social media, at least some.  And when they are online they are talking with friends about family and having fun.

Now that, is a woman.




Moms on the Internet are about having fun, whether it be with their kids, their friends, their husbands or themselves.   Of course, the truth is, how often is a mom sharing about spending time alone?  Very rarely, and when it happens, its usually in a quick facebook post that reads "Oh he's taking the kids to store!  I am going to take a nap!  You are the best husband ever!"

Today's research : Dallas Moms.  Let's see what came up.


Dallas Moms Blog
@DallasMomsBlog

This is my first find, and really one of the most simply designed female sites out there.  Its refreshing though to get a way from the glitz and bling and the bright pink.  It really opens your mind up to take in all the useful information their contributing bloggers have to offer.  The other good thing, is that the site is not over burdened with information.  Since its beginning in April 2011 there are at most 32 posts a month which is nice because otherwise a blog wins a quick trip off my blog role.   Ladies, keep it up - good work!

What I like most about DallasSingleMom is her Twitter lists.  This is an awesome way to a) declare your womendom and b) help your followers out.  Its true, I am list leech.  I want to know who you want to know and why... better yet, I want to be able to select who I want to know based off of why you know them.  Is this a girl thing?  Probably, but any which way, Dallas Single Mom has learned how to manage her kid(s?), her time and her friends... lists.  Follow her tips and you will probably be able to do the same.

News about Women being on the Internet

I began listening at "... preplanned the fight and and posted details about it on Facebook, which is why more than 30 women showed up ready..." is when I stopped.

Really? Post directions to a fight and 30 women will show up? I wonder how large of a crowd we would get if we posted details about a group hug.  This is why women get a bad wrap.  Thumbs down Sacramento.

There are a lot of women on the Internet.  So many that I really couldn't spare the time to decide who would make the final two entries.  That, and its the one night my husband is home this week, so I really want to race home for nice dinner with him.

If you want to shout out to a lady in Dallas, please do!  She deserves to hear your kudos.

ps, another reason for such a weak post.... I am exhausted.  To catch you up, if you didn't know, I work for a non-profit and I am trying to plan a social media blitz of sorts.  Of course, before I say "Sure this will work" or "I think this is the best way to go" I am trying it out myself.  Its a tough online world out there and if you don't have friends going in (or can't afford to pay to have the right friends) then more power to you.  So far the biggest challenge is finding the time to break away during the work day when so many others are online doing the same, and complete my job without working into the night.  Today for instance, I'm leaving on time(ish) but at what cost to the post.   Things to note and consider for when I make the proposal to the boss.   Twitter is a beast, Facebook is iffy, blogs are tough and there is so much information to process your brain could explode out of your eyes... if we are going to do this, and do this right, we need to find an intern.
