TheBERRY.com (formerly sheCHIVE.com which is still up and running at the moment) is the self proclaimed "World's First Female Humor website". The creator of the website is Emily aka 'EmRes' aka 'idz'.There is not a lot of actual information on her persona, except the story of how she was convinced to start the website "over a couple of pints at Fado's", by two friends. You can also read a little about Emily growing up, on the About page of theBERRY.com.



The website is very well designed. The color scheme chosen was a great decision. The violet/lavender theme is truly a relaxing and feminine touch to the website. The structure is also a good one. Each of the categories and items on the website are clearly defined and visible without difficulty.
