Andy Carvin was so shocked he's come up with a Stop Cyber Bullying day tomorrow March 30th. We'll be hearing from Andy on tonight's show . . . read on for more details.
Kathy Sierra was a respected IT author and online blogger - she wasn't into politics nor religion - but was targeted by some pretty creepy cyber abuse. If you're not familiar with the story then you can read the post in which she described the abuse she received here.
We hope to speak to Kathy at some point in the near future - if not tonight then maybe tomorrow - but for obvious reasons (read the link above) she's keeping a low profile.
Web Buddha Tim O'Reilly has called for a blogger code of conduct. It's a subject close to our hearts here at WHYS where the blogosphere informs what we do to a certain extent.
It's just one of the topics we'll be debating tonight so if you've an online presence in any form - blog, myspace, facebook, embarassing item in google's cache that you just can't get rid of - then please let us know. Phone us tonight.
