Latest Coverage of Tech Policy Summit '08
Mar 27, 2008
Day two of Tech Policy Summit is well underway, with Summit emcee Steve Wildstrom of BusinessWeek interviewing Verizon EVP and CTO Richard Lynch on stage now.
We kicked off the morning with a special video message from EU commissioner for information society and media Viviane Reding, followed by a keynote by FCC commissioner Robert McDowell and a roundtable on wireless innovation hosted by CPUC commissioner Rachelle Chong (who knows how to keep it interesting even at 9:00am). Marketplace host Kai Ryssdal also interviewed craigslist founder Craig Newmark about the future of the Internet.
A podcast of all of this year's sessions will be posted on in the Media Vault starting next week.
We've also started to post photos from yesterday on Flickr. We have HUNDREDS yet to add, so keep checking back as the week goes on.
