Same thing happened with me as well. I think spam filter is holding our comments for moderation.

Thank you

ISOC-NY is supporting CSNYC, a new program to promote Computer Science education in NYC. A recent CSNYC meetup tackled the topic of involving more girls. Video can be viewed at http://isoc-ny.org/p2/6300

[On a technical point - I tried to leave this as a comment on Kathy's post. 1) Preview doesn't work. 2) Hitting save just disappeared the comment with no acknowledgement. 3) There was no, as is standard on say, Wordpress, ability to associate one's email with the comment, or subscribe to further comments. Surely we can do better?]

Hi everyone - To celebrate International Women's Day, March 8, Kathy Brown, Desiree Miloshevic, Theresa Swinehart, and Narelle Clark collaborated on an article around the importance of women in ICT.  The article highlights several initiatives across the ISOC community that support women interested in technology careers and bring Internet access and training to women around the world.

Here's a link to the article:

In addition, we created a special web page to share stories about inspiring women in technology.  And, we have a list of resources that empower women and girls in the world of ICT.  We are asking our community to share their stories and links to organizations that support women in tech.
