Among the creative social media networks made for women by women is The What List. Founded by visionary tech entrepreneurs and friends Gina Pell and Amy Parker, The What List offers ‘intelligent, edgy, and interesting online content for women.’ With this creation, Pell and Parker tapped into a soul-deep need among readers for connection and community, and it grew into a private online community called The What Women. Today, their over 35,000 members share stories and ideas, offer support, and seek advice.
