Having a woman as co-founder is one of the best things a startup can do. It gives you much better insight into half your customer base. I like the article, but I find that too many articles fail to highlight the benefits of having a woman on your founding team. In 2011 if you're starting up I think it's absolutely essential to have a woman on your founding team.

In the tech startup scene the needs of women are definitely under served, it's a virtually untapped customer base. Ignore women founders at your own peril.
