gender and technology?

yo, yo, yo MARIA!
Currently, I am writing an essay on gender and technology (i.e. how hot pink phones are being marketed to women, etc), and one of the resources is the Gender Analyzer and... "It uses Artificial Intelligence to determine if a homepage is written by a man or woman."

so, I obviously inserted our blog in to see the outcome and turns out we are 52% female but overall gender neutral. I thought this was interesting how you could distinguish gender through this site....strange, interesting, stereotypical?
your thoughts?

anywayssssssss, check out this blog Lady Geek, it not only shows some fun technology, but also brings up some interesting points.
check-check-check it out

MARIA:

new show to check out Party Down it stars Adam Scott, Will Ferrell's douche brother from StepBrothers, AND Martin Starr a.k.a. Bill Haverchuck from Freaks and Geeks, if that has not yet convinced you to watch it yet then guess who is a writer on it?
PAUL RUDD, who I have loved ever since Clueless when he stole my heart.
