The only events open to women at this year's annual summer X Games held in Los Angeles were: Wakeboarding and skateboarding,
The organizers of the X Games claim that "female athletes in many extreme-sports categories have not reached a high-enough level to add arenas for women."


And the necessary ranting from the blog community MediaGirl can be found here.

The Olive Ream by Omer Alvie is thoughtful and thought-provoking at the same time. A relatively new Pakistani blog, Olive Ream deserves to be visited quite often.

The latest entry is here.

Blog of the Day: Ethan Zuckerman's heart in Accra

03/08/05 17:21 Filed by Saswat Pattanayak in: Reference
...My heart's in Accra : Ethan's Weblog - My blog is in Cambridge ...

In 1994, I dropped out of graduate school and joined a couple of friends in Williamstown, MA in building one of the first "pure" dot.com companies - Tripod. As the only person on the team who knew HTML, I got to be "tech guy" - outclassed by guys who could program circles around me, I became bizdev guy, legal guy, customer service guy and R&D guy before settling, briefly, on "retired guy".


That’s Ethan Zuckerman who blogs on Africa, Technology and Media. What I most like about Ethan is his efforts to put African bloggers on the network of the first world. And by that alone, he has added a lot to a divergent discussion already.
