So, what is a girl geek anyway?
A girl geek is, you guessed it, someone who is female and has an interest in technology, particularly computing and new media. Not necessarily technically minded. There’s even a Girl Geek Manifesto:
- Share your knowledge, ideas and experience with others.
- Encourage others to use and find their interest areas with technology.
- Make learning technology fun!
- Encourage both the older and younger generations into technology.
- Be proud of being geeky!
- Be ethical about your geekiness.
This manifesto is, of course, not written in stone. It is written in a wiki, so anyone can come in and edit or discuss what is on.
But have you ever wondered what a girl geek usually looks like? What she likes and dislikes? And how she feels about general geekiness?
