Sunday Sit, Sip, and “Sync” ~ 8-19-2012
Once upon a time there were three girls.
Smart girls.
Very smart girls.
And they wanted to play with “smart toys”.
Like the toys our brothers had.
And our best friends’ brothers.
My sister described one scene she saw at this year’s Bay Area Maker Faire as follows:
A big, bright, pink tent with pink and purple helium balloons floating above it.
Inside were lots of girls.
Little girls.
Big girls.
Sitting on a huge carpet designing, building, assembling, and totally focused on…
engineering.
Many times I have heard my sister
(Intel is her “Boss”)
lament over the lack of women in the field of engineering.
She has always said that if smart girls went into engineering,
they would be hired right out of college.
Here is a company founded by three such girls.
Do yourself a favor and check it out!
