PHPWomen.org Update
Ligaya Turmelle, #phpc community member, part-time DevZone roving reporter, and founding member of phpwomen.org has posted an update on the site. Normally I just quote a piece and send you off to her blog so I can share the clicks. However, this one is so short, I think I’ll just post it all. Do me a favor though, click here when your done so she can feel the love. (If you’ve never read Ligya’s blog, you may want to blok off a portion of your day and camp there. She’s got some great posts.) Anyhow, here’s the phpwomen.org update.

Just wanted to drop a quick note to update the world on PHPWomen. During the holidays the site became rather quiet, but then so many of us (myself included) were out doing the holiday/family things and let the PHP world take the back burner.
Since then we have once more started to pick up. We currently have ~180 registered users on our forums (200 is coming quicker then I thought) and Kathy Reid recently made us a custom theme for the site (a forum skin is on its way to unify the site looks).
Regular users are visiting again and new coders are starting to find mentors quietly (I now have a little sis myself). I just recently added a thread to the Member’s Benefits section to help them find each other. Hopefully it helps in some small way to bring and keep women in the field.
