Top scores
Well my Women in Technology dinner session seems to have really struck a chord with the audience at TechEd Auckland.
I've had loads and loads of feedback about how valuable the evening was, and the scores for the session have totally blown me away. Thank you everyone for your support of Darryl's initiative, I just know that he's started something fabulous for women in NZ.
But the most valuable thing for me is the fact that several women (Nas, Amanda, Ros and Bronwen for starters) have contacted me with the aim of creating a girly geek network in New Zealand, and Australia too. With Elisabeths efforts in Canada and the existing Women in Technology group in New Zealand, things are really going global. I've connected all of these women together with the aim of getting something "joined up". You know, I'm really proud to have been a part of this and I hope that other countries can link up their women in Technology groups to get something going.
I really hope this thing lasts - wherever you happen to be the world. Roll on TechEd Hong Kong and let's keep the ball rolling.
So...
If you've got a women in Technology group or a girly geek group in your region and want to get involved with the global group, send me your details and I'll get you all connected to each other...
