   Totally Wired's Blurbs
About me:
With headlines like ".. Danger Zone" and "Are Teens Saying Too Much ..?" appearing in publications like the New York Times, Time, and Newsweek every day, adults are becoming increasingly worried about what kids are really doing on the internet and with technology today.

So what is MySpace, Facebook, Xanga, LiveJournal and what exactly are teens doing on them? Totally Wired is the first inside guide to what teens are really doing on the internet and with technology. Speaking with a cross section of industry professionals and teenagers, author Anastasia Goodstein gets to the bottom how teens are use technology as well as the benefits and draw backs of this use. Covering issues like:

*Social networking
*.. journaling
*Cyber bullying
*And much more

Totally Wired arms adults with the language and knowledge to address the real issues of raising tweens and teens who have grown up with the Internet and cell phones. By providing adults with a greater understanding of the what their kids are really doing on the internet and how they are using technology, Totally Wired will give adults the to ability to set realistic boundaries necessary to keep children safe.

Totally Wired will be published by St. Martin's Press on March 20, 2007 and is available for pre-order on Amazon.com. and Barnes&Noble.com.

Who I'd like to meet:
Parents of teens who are trying to understand what their teen is doing on the computer in her room with the door closed. Educators, librarians, psychologists, youth media folks, anyone working with teens, and of course, teens!

Thanks for adding us!

The Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media doesn't want any Jane to grow up believing she is only worthy of sidekick status. That's where our I Want to See Jane Campaign for girls and women comes in. YOU can be involved by spreading the word and telling your story, and your story could end up in the first GDIGM documentary!

You can also create a Public Service Announcement (PSA) based on GDIGM-sponsored research and enter to win a trip to Hollywood to meet a creative rep or agent!

Thanks very much for your friendship and the important work you are doing to inform and empower others.

When you have time check out our recent classroom Blogs regarding dreams, healthy risk-taking, forgiveness, and tolerance.

Please consider leaving my students a comment... words of encouragement, a meaningful quote, song lyric, or some general advice for young people.

Wishing you a healthy, productive and prosperous '08!

Best,
John
