Ulla-Maaria Engeström
A new kind of activist, Ulla-Maaria Mutanen started her blog because she "thought girls should get more active in defining where society and technology are going. The Helsinki native is also building a free product code system and an open database for products, ThingLinks, while working toward a Ph.D. in the social sciences. In her spare time, she likes to "scavenger second-hand shops for wonderful things, sing, and ride a green bicycle." Note to Dean Kamen: She thinks you should invent a flying Segway.
