The session wasn’t really called that. It was actually called Women Blog Developers, and it was a very small but high-quality discussion about software development and women, led by Karen Luk from MSN Spaces. The discussion spent a fair amount of time on an issue that doesn’t get discussed enough: how to get development feedback from women. (I brought up the example of Microsoft’s Vista video.) No grand solution bubbled up, but great ideas percolated slowly through ten brains, and I saw men and women developers talking afterwards.
