On Friday's Today show, Matt Lauer interviewed Twitter CEO Dick Costolo. While the conversation skimmed the surface of revealing any actual information – Twitter is so hip and cool! Sometimes people send mean tweets! Man everyone there is young! – Costolo subtly tried to smooth over the company's "woman problem
The GOP has more problems than a math book with a distant father, but the problem that stings the worst, electorally speaking, is its problem with women. Now, party leaders are doing something about one aspect of that problem, designed especially with the hapless male conservative in mind: sensitivity training. I'm…
Today Twitter announced Marjorie Scardino as their newest board member, what they didn't tweet was that she is their first female board member.
It's hard to imagine anyone disliking Paul Walker, whose sudden death this holiday weekend seemed so unlikely that a Twitter hoax insisting that news of Walker's death was in fact a hoax

Today, I took a break from gestating male heirs/ slaving over a hot stove/ piping down and letting the men talk to check this website called "Twitter," where a famous base-ball player named David Price had some great Thanksgiving travel tips for ladies: let your man drive! Especially in dangerous weather! Men, you see,…
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…
Conflict is bad. If you're fighting, something is wrong. Happy people never fight. Fights are OK but only rarely. Right? You've heard all this in the popular cultcha. And so it was with great excitement that I read about the couple who broadcasts all their fights on Twitter, because yes and finally! People who aren't…
As you may know, Twitter's IPO debuted yesterday. The company's stock market capitalization is about $25 billion, and this report claims each user is worth $110. Right here is a program that answers the question "How much does Twitter owe me?" Fun! (FYI the company owes you nothing. You will never see that money.)
In today's Tweet Beat, Mara Wilson can't seem to shake her past, Simon Pegg channels Sean Connery à la Zardoz, and Julie Klausner has quite the show to pitch.
Protective parents, this is the technological breakthrough you’ve been waiting for: a bra with a Bluetooth device on the clasp that sends a tweet whenever a horny mook unhooks your daughter’s bra. You can probably even customize it to tweet a message at your local police precinct, something like: “my daughter is about …
Yesterday, we all learned that Justin Bieber isn't just an incredibly rich and expertly-coiffed pop star — he's also magic. How else can one explain the spell he cast over a Texas stripper when, during his Friday-night gamboling, he touched her on the butt?
Or maybe it's meant to entice another board
Twitter, a company of around 2,000 employees, doesn't have a single woman on its board, and very, very few female executives of any kind. After the New York Times ran a pointed article to this effect, the company's CEO Dick Costolo went on the (Twitter) defensive.
Over the weekend, Twitter CEO Dick Costolo was pummeled after his company's public filing exposed the makeup of the board of directors seated atop his $20 billion real-time empire: All white and all male.
On Friday, the New York Times published an article pointing out that as Twitter files to trade stock publiclyjoined the company was promoted in August. And then the hubbub began.
One of the biggest problems with Sex and the City 2 was that it sucked. It contained a single good Lawrence of my labia joke, went on for more than two hours (146 minutes, to be more precise), and invented unnecessary drama so its characters could rehash old plot points that were handled during the series. Nobody was …
Tweeting while drunk! We've all been there. You go out, you go hard and then wake up the next morning to find that you've sent 35 tweets to John Stamos, all telling him what a big Jesse and the Rippers fan you are and "Oh my go !! Add me back ru still with Aunt Becck?!!?!11"
I'm a huge fan of when two things occur at the same time in the news that illustrate glorious contradictions about how we live our lives. Like, on the one hand, it only takes 224 tweets to fall in love, says this study by UK electronics retailer Pixmania. But over on the other deeper, more enlightened hand, is a story …
Burlington Coat Factory: they're more than great coats. They're also the namesake of an incredible — albeit probably fake — Twitter feed that's one-third Google Translate misfire, one-third crotchety shopkeeper, one-third corporate Twitter parody, 100% awesome.
I remember a time back in second grade when my friend Ailee was explaining her sudden hatred for Jonathan Taylor Thomas, a boy whose posters had, until a week ago, plastered the walls of her bedroom.
In late August, tv therapist/old timey Goldrush villain Dr. Phil caused a bit of an uproar when he tweeted
Hopefully, when Pres. #Putin says "we must not forget that God created us equal" he includes gays and lesbians in Russia.

You thought babies capturing the market on style blogs
Did you watch MTV's Video Music Awards last night? Apparently, they were broadcast live from this magical place called Broo-ka-line where the cold brew coffee flows like water and Beyoncé rides her bicycle through the tree-lined streets like a pleb! There were loads of famous people there — a boy band called *N SYNC…
