Welcome WIDGET – Women in Development (Games and Everything Tech)

NA_WIDGETBig welcome to WIDGET, a brand new website devoted to women in the fields of science and technology.  It’s WIDGET’s hope to build a positive nurturing community for creative types everywhere, and might we just say that the women of WIDGET are already off to an incredible start.  With launch articles from Bioware’s Lead Editor Karin Weekes, PC Powerplay’s Meghann O’Neill, Big Top Ballet’s Elizabeth Boylan, Luvapp’s Cleo Whittingham, and TinManGame’s Miellyn Fitzwater Barrows, great advice and stories are already available on day one. … If only we would have had such an impressive launch… sheesh…

The goal of WIDGET is to post a few blogs a week from a variety of females who are fans of creativity and community.  With such an impressive launch lineup, we’re expecting some great things in the future.  Check out these links from their press release below.

If you’re interested in contributing a blog post or know anyone that would be we are super interested to hear from you!

A lot has been written about Wonder Woman, comics, and feminism in light of an interview with David and Meredith Finch, the new creative team taking over the comic bearing the title of the same name. Articles such as, “Wonder Woman’s feminism matters. So why would the comic industry reject it?” and “The F-Word: Wonder Woman’s Feminism Shouldn’t Be Covered Up” have been popping up all week. As they should! It’s kind of ridiculous this discussion needs to be had, not about Wonder Woman, but about society and its view of feminism. Why? The perceptions of feminism by some, and this applies to men and women, is exactly why these conversations keep cropping up.
