The definitions of feminist activism are many, and while the jury may be out on where blogging falls along that definitional spectrum, I'm inclined to declare the fbomb a sophisticated example of active, young feminism. It's not often that I come across 'by girls, for girls' projects that earnestly work toward feminist objectives and candidly express feminist perspectives (see the sometimes mess that is gurl.com). Certainly, the fbomb stands to gain a lot from more diverse feminist viewpoints and experiences, especially in terms of race, sexualities, and relationships among so-called 'first' and 'third' world women, but Julie's doing a pretty bang-up job thus far. I look forward to seeing how the project develops as Julie grows/changes/learns as a feminist.
