Information online on women, violence & ICTs

Information is an essential tool for women's equality and eliminating violence against women, including through ICTs. Sharing info, creating info, disseminating feminist info as much as we can. Let me link you to del.icio.us, one of a few so-called social bookmarking tools. It allows one to save one's bookmarks online, such that they are accessible from anywhere, anytime. They're not lost in the case of a computer crash! The other great advantage is that one can share them with others and in this way, share information and resources with people around the world.

The organizers of this campaign have suggested that this day's action in the Take Back the Tech campaign be around using knowledge to counter violence against women. I'm taking them up on it. I have added over a dozen bookmarks to the list of del.icio.us bookmarks tagged takebackthetech. Check them out! Read, navigate, surf, learn - and share the information, for women's safety and equality!
