Where ARE The Women Bloggers?

Well, this bewilderment has come to rest in the west, goldarnit. Ed Kemmick at City Lights announced an upcoming Yellowstone public radio program on Blogs, Bloggers, and Blogging, featuring him, David Crisp and Craig Sprout. A discussion began  in the comments (ever so gently initiated by Patia) and continues here, about the absence of women on the panel. The panel is also pale.

Nothing particularly fresh here. If you are interested in reviewing the conversation so far, I have a fairly extensive list of links in my del.icio.us women blogging bookmarks.  Aldahlia, in a guest post at feminste, suggests a Google bomb to guide folks to the women bloggers themselves, instead of only to discussions about whether we exist. I already had nearly all of these on my sidebar, but not linked to where are the women bloggers -- which I think is a great idea, and I've done it. Here is my version [also at the bottom of the sidebar]: 

where are the women bloggers

I was absolutely delighted to find, when I opened my Newsweek this afternoon, that they point readers interested in this to Body and Soul -- some of the best writing on the web -- and to Chris Nolan, whom I've not read before.

There are many women bloggers here in Montana, some of whom can be found in my Montana Links, or on the blogroll at  Big Sky Blog. Of course, we can circle back to what is considered politics, and what is considered media, but frankly I'm tired of circling.

A commenter at City Lights says:

White male bloggers who focus on news and current events have a lot of interesting things to say. But couldn’t it become more interesting if someone like Moos were included?

And I concur.

Ah, another excuse to use SHE-BLOGGER! We need a cowgirl one, though. Tild~ ??

UPDATE Saturday morning 26 March:  Annnd . . . Moos has been included!

Funny; I just posted online an article I wrote last fall about female godbloggers (e.g. women who blog with a religion focus.) It's http://velveteenrabbi.com/godblog.html>here...
