i read the article but with a skeptical frame of mind (ie, "if she knows her stuff, why does she need to be so 'flashy'?") plus the title just made me cringe. A 180 change after reading it (plus a quick peek at a few of the S/C vids on youtube): the person behind 'SexyCyborg' seems to be bright, pragmatic, and honest (indeed, well beyond their years). As the the father of a six-year old girl, If this person has somehow become a role model "[t]o inspire young women to go into technology", seems to me they've earned it.
