Feminist Hacker Barbie

Forget Kim Kardashian, Computer Engineer Barbie broke the Internet for a few minutes. I won't rehash all the outrage here, for it will have been old news by now.

Rather, I want to give a shout-out and kudos to Kathleen, the maker of Feminist Hacker Barbie, an app where you can rewrite your own version (a better version) of the Computer Engineer Barbie story. You can even check out other user-submitted versions on the site. Just more proof that coding CAN have social impact. And just more proof that now's a good a time as any for women to be entering the computer engineering field.

Eat that, Barbie!!!
