Today is Ada Lovelace Day! In her honor, writers around the world have pledged to publish a note about a woman in technology who they admire. See FindingAda.com for more info. It is impossible for me to only pick one woman in technology! For me, there are so many to choose from, including:
- Lisa Meeden - professor at Swarthmore College who may be the best teacher in the world
- Laura Blankenship - free-lance geeky mom/educational technological evangelist, who may be the best techno-geeky-mom/wife/friend in the world
- Jane Prey - has made so many great things happen in my (and many people's) career
But, instead of picking just one woman, I'm going to cop-out and vote for the entire Next Generation of women who will change the face of computing, and take the field in exciting new directions. This includes:
- Dianna Xu - assistant professor at Bryn Mawr College, inspiring teacher, researcher, and friend
- Xiaohang Quan - undergrad who discovered a bug in the Large Hadron Collider just recently
- All of the great women who are graduating or have graduated from Bryn Mawr College in Computer Science, and are going to make a difference!
To all of the women in the Next Generation, we salute you!
