POPSThe hidden brain drain - women who lose out by having children "... allowed childbearing to dilute focus". Sylvia Ann Hewlett first veered off the career highway - or "off-ramped", as she calls it - in her early 30s. She was assistant professor of economics at Barnard College, part of Columbia University, New York, and in the running for a permanent teaching position, when she lost twins in the seventh month of pregnancy. Then she lost her job too: she was told that she hadn't made tenure because she had "allowed childbearing to dilute focus".

POPSToo old for networking? Do social networking sites work for the over 25s? I don't see why not. They work for me and I'm over 25. Perhaps I don't get the ten thousand comments a day I would get if I were a 16 year old on Bebo, but would I want them? And is it ageist to suggest that social networking is not for the over 25s?

POPSThis is your life (and how you tell it) I absolutely agree with this. The research that I do is heavily focused on personal narratives and subjective experiences. I want first-hand knowledge of their 'first-hand' knowledge.

POPSClipmarks changed again My word! I'm not on Clipmarks for ONE DAY and it all changes! I've never seen a site like it. Good work lads (and lasses - are there any lasses?). It's looking great. :)
