A little off-topic, but worth the support: SuperMarit is a Swedish (well, actually Gotland-ish) initiative to support women in the computer game industry. They would like to see more women becoming computer game creators and entrepeneurs, bringing a female view on a male-dominated segment of the cultural field. (By the way, if you doubt that computer games qualify as culture then go read Game Research.)
One would hope more women in game companies could counter the current inhumane conditions many game developers suffer under, some routinely working as much as 80 hours a week. Maybe we would get great new games without guns (or just different ones.) Maybe Grand Theft Auto 6 could have a female protagonist. In any case, SuperMarit has a great project name and we wish them luck. (Link from Misbehaving.)
