Getting To Know The New Atoosa: 'Gay Girls Are Girls Too'

More background on Atoosa Rubenstein's Seventeen successor Ann Shoket. Seventeeners, meet your new boss:

Shoket discovered the Internet via boyfriend's love notes:

When did you first discover your love and/or obsession with computers and technology?
Before I understood much about the Internet, my boyfriend sent me love e-notes and cute jpegs. I knew that using technology to unite people and to share emotions and experiences was going to be my greatest obsession.

She ate a lot of mac and cheese in college.

Her Amazon.com wishlist included an Oprah book, a 60GB external hard drive and a set of queen duvet covers called "gumps."

She fully embraces girl-on-girl action:

"Gay girls are girls too. CosmoGirl! is for all girls. So we include them."
