Ada Lovelace Day Article - Coming Soon

A while back Tim and I pledged that we would write an article about a woman in technology that we admire and publish it on the 24th of March 2009.. due to some technical difficulties we will be publishing that article on the 26th instead! So please do come and read our article once it’s published - and we are sorry for the delay.
Read about the pledge at www.pledgebank.com/AdaLovelaceDay
