Two pictures show how rare girls in the IT industry are
Gender barriers have always existed in the tech industry, and nothing can better illustrate this than attending a tech conference, such as Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference, which just concluded this week. And the data released by companies in the industry can also show the existence of these barriers. Google recently released data on the gender gap within the company, which showed that only 30% of the search giant's employees are women. This ratio is not surprising. But sometimes it helps to see the gap better. CNET reporter Dan Ackerman recently posted a Twitter message with a photo of the lines for the men's and women's bathrooms at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this year. Ackerman wrote: "There are lines in the women's bathroom this year. Is this a sign of progress?" This is in contrast to the photos Ackerman took at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference last year, when the women's bathroom was empty. Does this mean that women's status in the technology industry is improving? Unfortunately, the reality is probably not the case.
