tnkgrl (Myriam Joire) was born wearing combat boots and holding a keyboard; moments later she picked up a soldering iron… She’s been stomping, typing and hacking ever since!
After spending years being a code-monkey in the video game industry, she decided to share her experiences and thoughts on mobile technology on this blog, tnkgrl Mobile.
She’s been called a “writer“, a “personality” and a “pundit“, but mostly, she’s a butchy dyke with a fondness for other queers, punks, nerds, and misbegotten social deviants :)
She’s senior mobile editor at Engadget, and co-host of the Engadget Mobile podcast. She’s based in San Francisco. You can reach her by email at tnkgrl@gmail.com and follow her on Twitter as @tnkgrl.
