"But here's a good starting place: The share of women in computer science started falling at roughly the same moment when personal computers
These early personal computers weren't much more than toys. You could play pong or simple shooting games, maybe do some word processing. And these toys were marketed almost entirely to men and boys.
This idea that computers are for boys became a narrative. It became the story we told ourselves about the computing revolution. It helped define who geeks were and it created techie culture."

"My classes were just fine, I did learn a lot, but I got a job where they said "go learn how to administer unix boxes, there's some oreilly books on the topic that are good. ask for help if you need it" and a few months later, out of pure fear, I'd learned how to do that. I learned Perl, I learned all kinds of stuff about how unix works, and the approach they threw me into was one where you build confidence in teaching yourself stuff. I've been doing that ever since. Heck, for the last two hours tonight I've been reading a tutorial for R because it sounds cool and maybe I can use it sometime. Seriously, if you have this kind of curiosity and learn well on your own, this is a good direction."

Code4Lib est une communauté aux croisements du "code informatique", ou plus simplement de l'informatique" et des bibliothèques, j'ai déjà signalé leur revue : http://journal.code4lib.org/
Ici, il s'agit de leur planet qui regroupe un bon nombre de blog qui gravitent autour des mêmes intérêts, et c'est devenu une source d'idées nouvelles importante pour moi.
