Abstract: Leslie Regan Shade examines the tensions between the feminization of the Internet, versus feminist uses of the Internet. In her survey of how women are using the Internet she shows that women are using the Internet effectively for their empowerment but she warns that the right to communicate could be overshadowed by the commercialization of the Internet for the consumer culture. Development (2003) 46, 49–54. doi:10.1177/1011637003046001649
