    efuller At the very least, there are some of us that are working towards it. I strongly agree with the value of having female role models in tech: "They could change things for the next generation of girls aspiring to engineering careers and women already entering the field, Ms. Fleming hopes. “If their success becomes visible, so girls can identify with it, they will think, ‘Oh yeah, anyone can do this,’” she says."

    There is so much to the value in being able to "see yourself" in a position. it is harder for girls to "see themselves" in positions that are overshadowed by a masculine archetype.

    tonyberkman NYT article says "That Twitter Loses Its Scrappy Start Up Business Statup .....A natural evolution of a startup." Do you agree?

    Here's the article. http://dealbook.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/04/16/twitter-loses-its-scrappy-start-up-status/?src=busln

    I'm not sure I agree. I think it has more to do with whether you have investors or continue to decide how you as the owner want to run the business. Twitter, like Google,…
