Bloggers who buy fake Instagram followers to inflate their numbers might discover their follower counts dropping over the next few weeks. It seems Instagram is cleaning up their system - and deleting fake accounts. In December 2014, we're fixing an ongoing issue that incorrectly includes inactive or fake accounts in follower/following lists...We're in the process of fixing an issue that incorrectly includes inactive or fake accounts in follower/following lists...As we remove these accounts, some people may notice a decrease in their follower/following counts.

Camilla Combs, aka "Cami", is apparently more than just the person who follows dooce around doing...whatever it is she does (we assume her job is making sure The Imperial March plays whenever dooce enters a room).

Anyone have a tampon? #hee  3 minutes ago via ÜberTwitter Really? A tampon joke? That's how you are going to get this industry to take women seriously? I get that you are trying to be irreverent and light, but what's next? Making cracks about PMS and thigh size? You aren't going to get the respect of men in the tech world...

Dooce, apparently more of an ally than you are, informed facebook that she would "not be attending the Women's March on Washington".
