Except for their amazing collection of 419 gems, Lucy Sherriff, Science Correspondent, is consistently the best thing about UK based Techno news site The Register - & why I persevere with my bloglines subscription despite the fact that they churn out swamp-tides of information on a daily basis.
The Reg frequently reports on interesting gender based stories that rarely turn up anywhere else, for example this recent piece on the stagnant numbers of women in science in the EU, and this interview with Rebecca George, chair of the Women in IT Forum, and director of UK government business at IBM. This isn't (thankfully) to suggest that Ms Sherriff is the only one over there reporting on inequality issues (for example, there's this article by John Oates on why humanity needs women IT workers).
