Women Fix Everything, Apparently

Kat sends this spiffy article by Katty Kay and Claire Shipman in the Washington Post, "Fixing the Economy? It's Women's Work."

Not too thrilled about gender essentialism; I would bet that a lot of the difference we see in men's and women's management style is socialization.

Otherwise, it's a great article.

This week's best ad ever

I don't usually do this, because: ew, major corporate advertising, but this is really a very very cute ad, and I love it. It makes me happy.

This Week's Best Website

Dave Caputo and Positronic Design are pleased to announce the brand-new, completely redesigned, and transformed GlobalGayz.com! Already one of the top-visited gay rights and culture websites in the world, GlobalGayz.com and its creator, Richard Ammon, have set out to leverage its high traffic and giant content base (1,000+ Articles & 22,000+ Photos) to raise funds for gay rights groups worldwide.

Nice work Dave and Positronic Design!
