Motherhood Is Not A Liability To A Woman’s Ability In Business

Posted on by

When I started my first technology company in my early 20’s it never even crossed my mind that I was a bit of an anomaly being a female CEO in a male dominated tech industry.  Frankly, the first time I really even became aware of how few women executives there were in the tech industry was when I attended a national technology leadership conference. As I walked the exhibit hall it was pointed out to me by one of the male CEOs that I appeared to be one of the only females in the hall that wasn’t there as a hired “booth babe” (his words, not mine) to help draw executives into their booths to hear about companies latest technologies. I looked around the room and to my surprise, he was right. At the time I simply thought to myself, “hmm, that’s interesting” but it didn’t even cross my mind to consider my gender as a worry or limitation. Perhaps that came from being raised by parents who taught me that boys and girls were equally valued. And it probably didn’t hurt that at the age of four my mother bought me a t-shirt that read, “Anything boys can do, girls can do better.” I had no reason not to believe that, so I didn’t let it worry me.

Leaks of unnamed Xperia model surface ahead of Sony event

Posted on by

@evleaks has unveiled an Xperia model that’s supposed to be released at Sony’s event at MWC tomorrow morning. The device could possibly be a new line of models or a spinoff of the Xperia C series. Since there’s no front facing flash, it may or may not be an Xperia C model.

The device in the leaked image features an Xperia logo on the rear along with a single LED flash, dedicated camera button, and large top and bottom bezels, likely because the side bezels are razor thin.

There is also a standard shaped power button which obviously signifies lack of a proper fingerprint scanner that we’ve seen on the Xperia Z5.

Sony’s event is scheduled for 8:30AM this morning at MWC’s local time.
