Tara Hunt of Citizen Agency wrote a good read on her blog about the question I know many women get who need to be visible online - “Aren’t you afraid, as a woman, about being so open online?”

As a person who been told in e-mail and to my face that I am working for the devil, I have learned no matter how hard you try and how nice you are, some people just won’t like you. (The one problem with the Devil remark, it has been directed to different companies I have worked for or consulted for. )

I agree with Tara, the precise reason that people bully others is to shut them up. The important point to take home here I think is the openness of the relationships people need to have to do business online. Women need to must be able to as free as men to choose the degree of openness they think is appropriate to compete and work with others. Failure to do so means they will fail to advance and grow.

“I think they have to understand that the Nielsens are not telling the story anymore and that the 18-49 demographic they’re all so keen on is online and that’s how increasingly they are getting their news and entertainment.”

Will old institutions learn the hard facts such as people moving from printed books to electronic formats? Plus their ways to measure their supporters are vastly outdated for many demographics because cell phones and the Internet. The ones who do will still be in business in 10 years.
