She’s Geeky Un-Conference

For those of you who might be curious about what we’re doing this weekend, it’s She’s Geeky in Mountain View. It will be my 2nd time attending this conference with my esteemed colleague, Jennelle Crothers, fellow Microsoft MVP and all around smarty pants. Usually we are the only two sysadmins, but perhaps there will be more this time!

This conference format is actively CHOSEN by the participants. Sessions are proposed, it’s very democratic and cool. From their website “She’s Geeky hosts unConferences across the US, providing a unique environment for women working Technology and other geeky fields (Science, Engineering & Math) to learn from one another, grow networks, connect across generations and discuss issues.”

Here is just a snippet of the sessions and goals of the participants for this event.

Pretty cool eh? I’ll have a full report on Monday for you. Better yet, it’s not too late to register and go with me. (
