The Compulsive Oversharers of the Internet: A Field Guide

Some people defend their online blog antics—sharing, bragging, writing, photographing—as simply a way to let their friends and family know what they're up to. Bullshit! The personal blog is a repository for personal vendettas, thinly-veiled sexual conquests, cries for help, intellectual masturbation, and career undermining. In other words, it is a rather stark portrait of your life, filled with Freudian slips. The thing is, being online every day—bloggin' as a self-promotional tool—wears down your boundaries. The things you'd thought you'd never say suddenly seem perfectly fine. Next thing you know, your blog is no longer some sort of branding mechanism. It's a place where you snap photographs of yourself sleeping. We've pointed out some of the most high-profile culprits.

Stephanie Klein Sells Self Down The River

Sixth grade: No one looked good. In promotion of her new book, Moose: A Memoir of Fat Camp, notably redheaded blogger Stephanie Klein recounts some of her most awkward moments. (She used to look weird, you know.) In the clip after the jump, she shows a forged note from a childhood's crush claiming he's in love with her. Looks like we found our next Margaret Seltzer!

Highschool Was Hard for Everybody, Not Just Bloggers

Is awkward-teen-pic-posting a way to appear less narcissistic than you really are? Even though curly-headed divorcebloggist-turned-chicklit-er Stephanie Klein's website is chock-full of pics chronicling herself and friends looking alternately happy, drunky, or contemplative, she wants you to know that she's still real, just like us. And she used to look weird! Is this the blog-version of the "I used to be a nerd in highschool" line that celebs are always proclaiming? [Greek Tragedy] More »

West Village Shop Unites Blacks, Jews, Money

We would like to blame some combination of Sex and the City, Stephanie Klein, and Sister 2 Sister for this party taking place at West Village boutique Elizabeth Charles tonight.
you are a dear friend, a good colleague and a total inspiration. that's why we are extending a warm invitiation to JAPS + BAPS, an intimate champagne and dessert mixer. The word BAPS (Black American Princess) and JAPS ( Jewish American Princess) can be frowned upon, but for this event we choose to define both terms as amazing and successful women who really need to get to know each other better. (And it's quite all right if you are neither BAP or JAP.) So, come out for dessert and champagne, 10% discount on merchandise in the store (and really cute servers).
