Guess what ladies? We've taken over the social web. The average American spends thirty-seven minutes each day on social media, and over half of those people have vaginas. We also share more news bits than men. We're number one!
Is your Facebook NewsFeed cluttered with outraged links to disgusting websites peddling sexist, racist nonsense? Time for a little spring cleaning, ladies!
As long as Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen do what parents do and share stuff about their child(ren) with the world, people are going to have an issue with it and media outlets are going to write about it like it's interesting. We're in for a long slog.
Last February, Paralympic gold medalist Oscar Pistorius was charged with murder in the killing of his girlfriend. He claims the shooting was an accident; the trial is set to start soon. And apparently, a South African bakery thought it would be smart to mark the occasion with a series of "Oscar Meme" cookies.
Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen had a child over the weekend. Congratulations! But wait – maybe next time don't tell us so much about how you had that child, says Good Morning America, which aired a segment Thursday about where "the line between 'okay' and 'TMI'" is when it comes to sharing on social media.
According to the latest report, 40 percent of people 18 to 24 are whiling away their bathroom hours on various social media platforms. Guess that explains the reported rate of smartphone fecal matter contamination!
That's right: At a new pop-up shop, you will "pay" for Marc Jacobs fragrances with tweets.
Welp. I guess there goes Mark Zuckerberg's evil plan to Logan's Run all of us Facebook users over the age of 35 and melt our internal organs down to use as fuel for his next phase of advertising algorithms. Turns out, the Olds are ever so quietly taking over America's most clickable social media platform.
Great news, Pinterest users! Your precious photographs of blueberry muffins and wedding updos won't have to live under the tyrannical oppression of still images any longer. Because it looks like Pinterest is rolling out the ability to post gifs, at least for some users.
A Brazilian law student who's pissed about his apparently low rating on the no good, very bad dating/non-consensual objectification app Lulu is suing the company, arguing that allowing anonymous and disparaging comments to be posted about a person is unconstitutional under Brazilian law.
It would appear that a full third of women in the U.S. are really, really into mason-jar D.I.Y. projects and inspirational quotes overlaid onto stock photos. Because according to the latest numbers, 33 percent of American women who bother using the Internet at all are now on Pinterest.
Facebook is fast becoming the internet's parent pasture for recently replicated humans who've decided that absolutely everyone in their immediate (and not-so-immediate) social circle needs to see a 60-photo series of their new infant hiding behind a sofa to take a dump in its tiny pants. Like a monkey. A small,…
Good news for all you Snapchat addicts out there: the latest version of the app now has three "smart filters" that overlay the time, weather, and speed at which your photo was taken, in case you want the recipient of your dick pics to better evaluate what God gave you. The update also allows you to replay video a grand…
The Internet — surely you've heard of it. It's that magical place where mostly-ordinary people become famous in the most absurd of ways. Case in point: high school cheerleaders who just happen to be so Instagram-famous that they have their own fan bases, haters, and scandals. Otherwise known as — I kid you not —…
In case any of you have been waiting with bated breath for the conclusion of New Zealander Reese McKee's attempt to turn his life into a Tom Hanks movie, well, I've got some bad news for you. Life does not imitate You've Got Mail.
Thanks to the ubiquity of digital photo capturing devices, nothing need go undocumented. Food? Instagram that shit. Baby? Vines or it didn't happen. Engagements? #NoFilter #OMG And tag your new fiancee or otherwise no one will know. But although the intention of photographing everything from the banal to the momentous…
Engineers at Facebook have recently developed a "Sympathize" button as an alternative to the not-always-appropriate "Like" button. "Sympathize" would become a response option specifically for status updates containing depressing content — like news of breakups, pets dying or alerts signaling that you've been listening to…
Much virtual ink has been spilled over the past few days over the Oxford Dictionary's choice of "selfie" for 2013 word of the year. But I've noticed among the chorus of opinions on the social media self portrait an annoying trend: the selfie evangelist. Selfies are just dandy, they say, because they're a way for people…
For a woman who has built an empire marketing her own smugly tied gingham ribbon of perfection and self-satisfied domesticity, Martha Stewart is remarkably terrible at one thing that, in the digital age, is almost unavoidable: sharing pictures of food on social media. In fact, Martha Stewart's Twitter feed is…
The New Zealand teen rapists known as the Roast Busters met many of their victims over social media and had an active Facebook page where members of the group bragged about getting girls occasionally underaged girls drunk and then gang raping them. When news of their exploits broke in local media, the page disappeared. …
