I think the Geek Feminism wiki[1] is helping out.  Because it seems in the 
past, someone would happen, some people would know...a few months later 
something else...different people are aware...next thing a totally different 
group is aware of....etc. And now with the Timeline of Incidents on there, we 
*all* can know "hey wait...this is the 4th time this year???"  And then when 
someone says "ok, so that's ONE incident...whatever...it's not a common 
occurrence," we're all better informed and able to say "actually, it's not an 
isolated incident...
