Love this POV. In the advertising / interactive blogger world, my counterparts from my gen are almost all men. But the huge influx of 20-something bloggers? Way more women ... in fact, maybe majority women. It's interesting to watch how it's changing not only the content of the conversation, but the expectations around how we relate and interact.
