The group aims to encourage women to share and express ideas using current technologies.[5][6][7] Its mailing lists have over 2,000 members;[3] they are used for asking advice, posting and finding jobs, and a "brag" list for sharing successes.[1] The group also organizes in-person events, including networking meetups and technical trainings.[1]
