sort of sad that they have no social,cultural,political, economic, comm, media, etc. researchers on the speaker list that i see. at least we see where they think our work fits into the future i guess:(
On October 29, 2009, UCLA Engineering will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Internet with a Symposium that focuses not on the history or even on the technology, but rather on the impact the Internet has had on society, business, communities, lifestyles, culture, etc., and on the likely directions it will take in the future.
Forty years ago, a team led by UCLA's Professor Leonard Kleinrock, sent the first message on the ARPANET, which later became the Internet. The Internet has revolutionized communication, education, business and entertainment leading to dramatic changes in our social, political and economic lives.
What's next? The event's featured Internet leaders, activists and analysts will offer valuable insights on the opportunities and pitfalls that lie ahead. Please check the website http://www.engineer.ucla.edu/IA40/index.html for detailed information.
During this event, an IEEE Milestone Award will be unveiled by IEEE President John R. Vig.
The keynote address will be given by Nicholas Negroponte, Chairman of One Laptop Per Child.
Other Featured Speakers include:
Arianna Huffington, Co-Founder & Editor-in-Chief, The Huffington Post John Taylor, Co-Founder & Bassist, Duran Duran John Perry Barlow, Co-Founder & Vice Chairman, Electronic Frontier Foundation Shiva Shivakumar, Vice President, Google, Inc. Michael Morhaime & Frank Pearce, Co-Founders, Blizzard Entertainment Mark Bregman, Chief Technology Officer, Symantec Thomas Gewecke, President of Digital Distribution, Warner Brothers Regina Dugan, Director, DARPA Gary Bridge,SVP, Cisco

Well, they do have a website... and about 8 million hits on Google.... Surely that makes John Taylor a distinguished speaker. ======== Dana Rotman PhD candidate University of Maryland's iSchool On Fri, Oct 16, 2009 at 11:15 AM, Terri Senft <tsenft@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear AoIR Researchers, I'm emailing with an invitation to a 10 min Intro about the open World University & School at 9a PT today in Second Life here: slurl.com/secondlife/Plush%20Nonprofit%20Commons/88/126/26 - in about 30 minutes. It's like Wikiepdia with MIT Open Course Ware, potentially in all languages, nationa states, subjects and at all levels, for OLPC countries and everyone. We'll meet on the Nonprofit Commons' Island, again, here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Plush%20Nonprofit%20Commons/88/126/26 - (through NetSquared) in Second Life. Conversation and Q & A will follow. Get an avatar and come in-world to this conversation :) I'd like to extend an invitation to join the Facebook and Google Groups for World University & School, as well: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=48753608141 http://groups.google.com/group/World-University-and-School/ (have to click two "join this group" buttons) Best, Scott http:/scottmacleod.com http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University
Interesting stats from Technorati about State of the Blogosphere; liveblogged from Blogworldexpo... important evidence emerging relating to the 'professional' class of bloggers - eg 40% are from a trad media background; 27% work in media still.

Another interesting panel at BWE- alarming comment just made from someone on panel who is old media - "how many of you in the audience want to be journalists? - he then says, well, in future, there's not going to be someone to employ you, because there are so few journalism jobs" does this get the blogosphere? Is it a view of old media that new media is wannabe? Surely the point is when will all journalists become bloggers, not the other way around. Rosen (NYU) and Solis (CNN) arguing politely about fact checking and ethics; Rosen gets round of applause for pointing out that newsrooms are not havens of perfect ethics and factuality! http://bit.ly/25Jpcm (sorry for spotty blogging - hard to follow debate) Dr Matthew Allen Associate Professor and Head of Department, Internet Studies School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts Curtin University of Technology, CRICOS 00301J Australia m.allen@curtin.edu.au http://netcrit.net <http://netcrit.net/> @netcrit +61 8 92663511 (v) +61 8 9266 3166 (f) Australian Learning and Teaching Council Fellow
