    A Whooper of a Social Networking Saga

    We like to bring a range of stories and commentaries to the GG blog. What follows is as much for your stomach as your social network.

    Showing social networking decorum and good taste

    Top of the Girl Geek agenda this Monday morning is the subject of good taste and social network decorum. The week has commenced with a noisy foray of commentary about ‘the shank’ on Facebook.
