For
his second install of his articles celebrating national blog posting
month Jeff will focus on technology blogs for women by women. The
world of technology has traditionally been male dominated and all the
ads, tutorials, reviews and news has always reflected that almost
ignoring the woman's point of view. With women now gaining ground by
holding more technology jobs and buying more gadgets the woman's
point-of-view is more important than ever.
