Blindpad is an open source collaborative text editor (like Google Docs or CoderPad) with integrated semi-anonymizing voice chat intended to help reduce bias in technical communication.  In particular it can be used to extend the concept of “blind auditions” to software programming and technical design interviews.  It is inspired by economists Claudia Goldin (Harvard) and Cecilia Rouse (Princeton) who concluded in their 1997 paper that the introduction of blind auditions in professional orchestras is likely responsible for about one-third of the 250% increase in female membership between 1970 and the mid 1990s.
