The Times recently featured an article highlighting that in a particularly short period of time the amount of female net users has grown considerably. And while the increase is not unexpected, some of the statistics certainly are.

Paul Glazowski at Mashable points out the most interesting, such as the fact 70% of girls are operating a social network account compared to only 56% of boys. Or that 35% of the female demographic are operating a blog, something a minor 20% of males partake in.

If Paul’s slim line rundown isn’t enough then we suggest landing on the Times article for some more assessment and detail on the altering gender topography of net users.
