Girls In Tech conference

Attended the Girls In Tech event yesterday at the Commonwealth Club.  Great conference with panels on venture capital, social media, coding, etc.  Insightful negotiation tips by Katherine Barr of Mohr Davidow and excellent keynote by Heather Harde of TechCrunch on how media can thrive in the information revolution.  Well done ladies!
