We started #Women2Follow on Twitter one Wednesday in February of 2009 in response to the lack of women profiled on top 10 tech and social media lists. Now every Wednesday thousands of people recommend women in their Twitter community to connect and network work with. Below is a twitter feed that follows 75 women in tech.

WOMEN ARE UNDERREPRESENTED
Some of the most gifted folks in technology are women yet they are rarely quoted as experts by the mainstream media and blogs. Furthermore women are significantly underrepresented on panels at major technology conferences. -
TO BREAK DOWN BARRIERS
The teleSummit aims to break down the barriers and showcase the brilliant talents of women who tech out. -
TO MOBILIZE A NETWORK OF WOMEN
One of our long term goals is to create a database of women technology experts to be used as a resource for the media and tech conference organizers. This database will not only provide a strong network of women in the technology sector but support the creative talents and energies of women who thrive in this arena.
