A good place to start would be to look at the gender distribution of
graduates in IT-related college courses for the major universities.
Just get yourself a copy of a college yearbook and see how many
computer science graduates are men and how many are women. That's one
starting point. Another point would be to ask nicely major IT shops
(ISP's, tech companies, and so forth) for the same information on
their employees, then maybe you could write a feature article
somewhere describing your basic research... :)
