Women in Gaming
For those of you who game online, we have a video that should be of interest, especially if you’re female or know female gamer -- it deals with sexual harassment and how women deal with the “predominately” male audience (although we know that the statistics for that don’t play out). This is a more in-depth discussion that we’ll get to once Espana returns, but we felt that this video was worth sharing now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrLp_bArz3Q N00dz or GTFO panel discussion at PAXEastGeeks and Fitness!
Sandy & Jade talk about geeks & fitness. Check out Fitocracy to help make fitness more fun.
