I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this blog. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appearance. I must say you've done a awesome job with this. Additionally, the blog loads very quick for me on Safari. Superb Blog! Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog.

So there are women who are seriously committed in IT, unforunately blogging is not seen as being worthy of a full-time commitment perhaps.

I see it as an opportunity to open up the blog arena and IT conferencing schedule to women in a larger way. I work with an American lady here who is an English PhD and IT Technologist with finesse. I am learning much from her. I noticed the dearth of female tech representation as well. I see it as an opportunity to open up the blog arena and IT conferencing schedule to women in a larger way.

I noticed on the photographs from Kimunya's visit to the States that women seemed mostly absent as speakers and panelists. On the other hand, the photos depicting serving food were overwhelmingly populated by women. It is structural, in part. That we continue to enact it is tragic.

Interesting theory about the KBW backlash, maybe it's led to limited offline participation. @ Amused, I don’t think there were any women even involved with planning Bar Camp.

Most meetings (non-IT) Kenyan women are involved in planning but don't step up in the limelight. How many weddings would happen without the wedding planning comittee? Who does the work? Who then choses to step back in the shadows? I would also think the shrinking away from KBW was because of the male backlash to some of the women. It is unfortunate, It really is not surprising.

Women are well represented in KBW but do drift in and out, so that makes the men who are more committed seem like a far larger number. @ Kenyan Pundit
