A woman must have an internet connection and a MySpace of her own if she is to write excruciatingly embarrassing online diary entries about herself.
For example, William Shakespeare owned a powerful, 120GB laptop with which he constantly networked on Facebook, Twitter and IM using the free wireless at Starbucks, but his sister was forced to make do with a Yahoo email account of limited storage capacity which she could only access once a week in the computer room at the Public Library. Consequently she could never tag her friends in pictures, compile iTunes mixes of her favorite bands, or maintain an Amazon wish list.
Such a woman was unable to post a video of herself disguised as an Elizabethan gentleman on YouTube. Nor could she have liveblogged her own suicide in the River Ouse.
