Fast Company has come up with their 2009 list of Most Influential Women in Technology. (Interesting that they didn’t put a woman on the cover…!?)
I am thrilled to be one of the women listed under the Blogger category:
-Aliza Sherman
Web Worker Daily
In 1995, Sherman started Webgrrls International, the first woman-owned, full-service Web company. These days, she writes for Web Worker Daily and has three popular blogs of her own.
The information above is slightly off but I understand it was a word count issue, and as a magazine writer, I know all about word count issues!
It should read:
-Aliza Sherman
Web Worker Daily
In 1995, Sherman started Cybergrrl, Inc., the first woman-owned, full-service Web company, and Webgrrls International, the first global women’s Internetnetworking group. These days, she writes for Web Worker Daily and has three popular blogs of her own.
Thanks to Fast Company for the kudos! It is an honor to be mentioned in the same category as blogging stars such as Ariana Huffington, Xeni Jardin, Elisa Camahort Page, Jory, Des Jardins, and Lisa Stone from BlogHer and Gina Trapani.

Aliza–sitting next to you on a page ain’t bad either. But I have to ask the same question: why not put a gal on the gosh dang cover!

I’m actually embarrassed to admit that when I first saw the Feb 09 cover, I thought it WAS a woman…wishful thinking.

I saw that issue, and while it didn’t hit home at first- it is funny they didn’t put a woman on the cover. I guess Shaun just has a higher profile right now- I’m sure it wasn’t an intentional slight!
Congrats on making it in that article- keep up the good work. I’m just finding you, but looking forward to reading your work.
And Aliza- that’s funny!!
