Although women make up half the population, they are under-represented in computer science and related technological fields. If your are interested in issues related to women and technology, the National Center for Women in Information Technology -NCWIT- is a great place to start.
I wrote the post on the day I learned that all of the members of the executive team for Microsoft Surface (Madrid) were male.
UPDATE:
The Microsoft Surface website now includes photos and bios of other team members, including women. One woman, Gretchen R., was originally hired to develop games for children on the Surface.
