Kudos to my pals at the NYC-based trend powerhouse Refinery29 for growing a tech team where women feel supported and respected and, perhaps even more importantly, actually serve in some key management and project lead roles.
Oh… and they’re hiring!

Four Macworld contributors share their tips for easier file management. I especially like Brett Terpstra‘s flagging rule for Hazel – I’ve seen how these types of visual prompts can help people create better habits and I’m a big fan of the concept of training your computer to gently nudge you into doing the right thing.
It’s hard to believe that it’s already been three months since I visited Luang Prabang, Laos to work alongside the dedicated people who run The Language Project.
Fanny Odermatt, a Swiss volunteer at Language Project’s @ My Library center sent me a message yesterday with a brief update on one of their projects: The Young Lao Photographer’s Gallery. If you’re in need of a bit of “virtual traveling” (or if you participated in the Help In Your Own Way Giveaway), I thought this would be a nice middle-of-the-week treat for you!
Students use donated cameras to document their daily lives and, in image after image, you can see both the beauty and the challenges of life in the Lao Republic. Soon, you’ll be able to buy these images directly from the website and the proceeds will be shared by the library and the photographers.
As part of the run-up to a book project called “Laos Through Our Own Eyes”, the @My Library center has also sponsored a Portrait Contest for its students. There are some really lovely, affecting shots here — especially remarkable given how young these photographers are. While you’re there, be sure to check out the other galleries as well!
