The Internet is flooded with reminders of International Women’s Day and encouragement to get involved in activities that draw attention to women’s rights related activities. The Google homepage features a “Google doodle” honoring the day. Clicking on it will take you to a website, sponsored by Google, that invites visitors to “Join women on the bridge” – a campaign for women to gather on more than 200 bridges in 42 countries today in recognition of the role that women play in peace building and in war-torn areas.
On Twitter, #internationalwomensday is the No. 1 trending topic worldwide (at least as of 9:30 a.m. EST). You can also follow @womensday, the official Twitter feed for the day, which is sharing event information and relevant facts and links.
