Social Media and Women in Tech Nominations Open

After receiving a nomination in Mashable's Open Web Awards via Twitter today, I realized that the nomination process for OWA was open. Go nominate your favorite whomever and whatever in social media. It'll be interesting to see the final outcomes.

And while I was checking out the OWA, I ran across a Tweet that lead me to Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology's Call for Nominations - Women of Vision 2010. If you know of any women in technology that fit the bill for these categories: Innovation, Social Impact, or Leadership -- you should nominate them to be recognized at the Women of Vision Awards Banquet.

The Personality Project: Women of Personality eBook 2nd Edition

How many visionary women have you been inspired by? Most of us have some story to tell of someone who did that for us and helped us to be what we are today.  Some time ago I was invited to be a contributor to the second edition of a new eBook called The Personality Project: Women of Personality. It's a collection of stories from 40 women (including me!) that shares our stories and tips for up and coming female entrepreneurs and businesswomen.
