I occasionally point out that there's a lack of representation in technology-based communities of a non-upper-middle-class-male life experience. I mention that this leads to many problems, including structures that instantiate a specific type of young-male worldview and style of interpersonal interaction.
Another example for the heap: the blog categories for Technorati. I'm not exactly sure where a blog about volunteerism would go, since there actually is no category -- ironically -- for community activities.

Excellent observation, Jessica, I've been wondering the same thing!!
