Renee - Renée lives in Virginia and has been using her Motorola DROID with Verizon since November 2009. She is always at her computer (for both work and relaxation), and loves Google and Twitter. She was constantly telling people about the DROID and found several other women that were, too, so she started this blog to make it "official" that women love DROIDs!

Sonya - Sonya got her first Android phone (a Samsung Moment from Sprint) in September 2010 and immediately began her quest to load it up with the perfect mix of fun, useful, and creative apps. Rather than let all those hours of app hunting and testing go to waste, she’s reviewing some of her more intriguing finds for Women With Droids.

CraftLass - CraftLass is a tech junkie that got her first gaming console by the age of four and computer at age 6. She loves to blend the arts and sciences, and is currently developing a new company focusing on technology education. On the side, she is a songwriter, musician, and avid gamer. She chose a DROID (the day it was released) partly due to being a longtime and happy Verizon customer but mostly due to it being the first phone with all the capabilities she was looking for. It didn’t hurt that her whole online life was pretty much on Google already, either! Read CraftLass' full bio and see her DROID's home screens!

Ellie - In love with technology since she got her first computer at age 12, Ellie is no stranger to open source software and experimenting with new technology. She owned her own web design firm from 1998-2008 and now does technology and marketing consulting for small businesses and nonprofits. When she is not downloading and trying new apps for her Samsung Moment, Ellie enjoys reading, exploring New York City and writing about living car free. You can almost always find her at a neighborhood coffee shop consuming large amounts of coffee and pontificating about the advantages of Android versus other phone platforms! You can follow Ellie on Twitter at @thepinkc or visit her tech blog at http://www.thepinkc.net.
Sadly, Ellie is no longer with us. Read our tribute to her here.

Deb - Deb’s a hardcore Android fan from NJ. The stars were aligned just right when her cell phone contract ended in October 2009, just before the Motorola Droid was launched. Once she made the leap to Android in April 2010, she’s never looked back. In fact, the dormant tech in her (back in the ‘90s she did a stint at Chubb to learn programming) has been fully reawakened. Today she enjoys helping grassroots nonprofits with their technology and social media efforts, learning to blog and singing Android’s praises through such outlets as WWD and her local meetup group for Android fans.
