My personal and professional interests are with female entrepreneurs, professionals and business owners utilizing digital and social media. I don't really see any particular focus on that, and to me, it's everything. The online digital space (which much larger than "social media" or even Google+) is the new frontier for professional women (and the girls that will eventually be those women).

Women 2.0 has paired up with L'Oreal USA to 'foster leadership and innovation at the intersection of the beauty and technology industries.' To me, the technology & beauty industries are about as opposite as you can get. Maybe that's why it's a good partnership, but I just don't see the connection (yet).

So, what I am working on creating that merges women and digital?

A place and community where women of any age, education, personal or professional background, career status, or global location can learn how to effectively use the power of digital media to improve their lives, careers, businesses, and environment by learning to define and amplify their voice online.

(Run-on sentence be damned <grin>) Right now it's just me, but hopefully by the end of next week, there will be three more on my team. It's time to kick the tires and light the fires!
