First of all, Chloe Sladden looks FANTASTIC on the cover of Fast Company. And it’s her whole body, fully clothed! See Wired? IT CAN BE DONE!
Second of all, this image accompanies a mission: Help Fast Company Find the Most Influential Women In Tech 2011! From the web site: “Two years ago, Fast Company compiled a list of the Most Influential Women In Tech, in part to recognize the disadvantages that women in technology face - proper recognition being just one of them.” (HOLLA!) This is the third annual list.
So - your mission, if you choose to accept it:

Now it’s time to begin putting together the 2011 list of influential women in tech, and this is where we’ll need your help—since there are those who still believe there aren’t any recognizable women in the tech industry. We’re opening a call for nominations, and we’re accepting them through all forms of social media, using the hashtag #wit11.
Here’s how to submit a nomination:
Leave a comment on this post
Write a blog post (use #wit11 so that we can find it)
Tweet (use #wit11 so that we can find it)
Leave a comment on our Facebook Page
Tag a photo on Flickr or video on YouTube (use #wit11 so that we can find it)
A check-in (on services like Miso and GetGlue, but also on Foursquare and Gowalla, etc. — again using #wt11. keep in mind, these may be a little harder for us to find as their data isn’t necessarily open to listening tools).
Be sure to include as much of the following information as possible: name, title, and why you’re nominating the person. A link to their website, blog, work, Twitter, etc. would also be helpful.

Okay the Foursquare + Flickr hashtags may not be the most direct way of nominating. Rock a few comments on the post here or use the #wit11 hashtag on Twitter, with the #changetheratio hashtag too if you can. Vote early and often! And by “vote” I just mean get out there and nominate fantastic women whom you think ought to be recognized. There are plenty, plenty of them.

Celebrating “WOMEN” just makes my skin crawl. I want to be recognized because I kicked ass. Period. Not because I did it in the “Female Category”.

*YES THIS* I don’t want to get the default “female” award, I want best in show!!
