New Parenting Site: GeekMom

Craft & Design

Ever since I took on the job of Editor at GeekDad, and would meet people at events like Maker Faire, the question I kept hearing over and over was “but what about GeekMom?!” Sometimes it was spoken with a bit of humor, but more often with a sense of real desire to see such a site.
To the best of my ability, I’ve always run GeekDad to be as much as parenting blog as it is a dad blog, to the point of including four wonderful geeky mom writers on our team. But it comes down to the fact that a site named GeekDad will always skew just a bit to one side of the gender line.

And thus, GeekMom is born! Natania Barron, Kathy Ceceri, Corrina Lawson, and Jenny Williams are taking up the helm of this tech-savvy blog for moms of all sorts. They’re tweaking the site over the month of September, so be sure to stop by, check it out, and give the team feedback! This healthy fruit and veg ice pop recipe by Laura Grace Weldon has already caught my eye, securing GeekMom’s new place in my RSS reader.
