"Ada Lovelace Day is an international day of blogging to draw attention to
women excelling in technology.

"Women?s contributions often go unacknowledged, their innovations seldom
mentioned, their faces rarely recognised. We want you to tell the world
about these unsung heroines. Entrepreneurs, innovators, sysadmins,
programmers, designers, games developers, hardware experts, tech
journalists, tech consultants. The list of tech-related careers is endless.

"To take part All you need to do is sign the pledge, pick your tech
heroine and then publish your blog post any time on Tuesday 24th March
2009. It doesn?t matter how new or old your blog is, what gender you are,
what language you blog in, or what you normally blog about -
everyone is invited."

It is one of the most powerful ruses of the
dominant to pretend that critique can only exist
in the language of ‘reason,’pure knowledge’,
and ‘seriousness.’
