Copy-pasting blogs… you mean you copy-pasted the whole blog content? all years of it? or just the past few months?

Really cool of you to do this, Sam. I think with Rebecca that so far women leaders are more specialized, in niche spaces. For example, off this list I know only of Laura Fitton (Pistachio). Many people know of me through Fast Company, not enough of them in tech environments though – so it applies. Good work.

Hi Gina,

Nope, not weird to me at all. I read who I read and don’t choose based on gender, race, religion, pet preference, design aesthetic, or anything else.

I simply like what they have to say.

Thanks for your comment.

When I read the first list, I couldn’t believe all the “thought leaders” were guys…I immediately thought of dana boyd. I guess this is a fix but isn’t it weird that the first 10 you thought of were men?

Thanks for doing this, I will definitely look into these ladies. It troubles me that as a woman working in social software I can’t pull the names of female thought leaders out of a hat as I can male. I’m looking forward to a time when this type of exercise won’t be necessary!
