Crablaw has announced a blogswarm. They’ll be hosting Take Back the Blog day on Saturday, April 28th, “in support of the rights of women to participate fully in all aspects of our society, including specifically online in the world of blogging but indeed everywhere and at all times, day and night, without fear of harassment, intimidation, sexual harassment, online stalking and slander, predation or violence of any sort.”
A blogswarm is an (hopefully) organized compilation of blog posts from a variety of bloggers on a given topic of urgent common interest.
If you want to submit a post please email it to: TBTB2007@crablaw.com
DO NOT submit via the comments, send your submissions to the above email address.

Sabrina reminds us:
Today, March 9, is the last day to comment on the proposed .XXX domain extension.
- .XXX domains would cost $60 per URL per year
- The new extension would be voluntary, punishing businesses that choose to self-regulate and not addressing the vast majority of adult webmasters using .com, .net, or international extensions
- Defining adult content, commercial or noncommercial, is very subjective
- The extension would likely become mandatory or pseudo-mandatory through credit card processor regulations; this would financially penalize the adult industry in a way that no other industry is subject to as well as open the industry up for censorship
