On-Line Gender Equity

Now that I have your attention -- a post NOT about Title IX.

The trend I noticed a few weeks ago continues -- Twitter followers seem to be 50-50 male-female, a remarkable thing. In a male-oriented on-line world, perhaps these Twitter feeds are a way for us to reach our female fans.

Curious to hear from others if they see the same kind of balance of numbers after the initial start. A high percentage of our first 100-200 followers were male, but in these last couple of hundred, females tend to lead. For example, our 1000th follower (and a gift certificate prize winner) was female.
