For a pet project, I'm looking to list out some women who were active and influential in the web from 1995-2002, and not coming up with very many. Enlighten me, please?

. @jenville @rachelandrew @karenmcgrane @fantasai, Elizabeth Castro, Kathy Sierra… There are tons. Or were. Many were driven away. Most have had credit for our work stolen by men. Few have Wikipedia entries. Too often, projects that want to promote women, only want 20-somthngs.

@janinewarner was an early web pioneer... She's still going strong and gives so much with her amazing bilingual abilities.

I remember at Web Directions North and how @mezzoblue interviewed you. Most folks are terrified are public speaking, but you worked through it and inspired so many of us with your wonderful uplifting design. Miss you always xo

Oh I remember it vividly how nervous I was. Your support helped. Most of us got pretty sick at that conference too. That was some nasty bug :) Miss you too 😘
I totally remember that! My friend @Erin and I attended that conference. Being in a sea of a mostly male audience, we were elated to have women represent. I also learned a lot from @vpieters back in the early days. ❤️
