N2Y2Con: Cisco Presentation

evonne — Tue, 29 May 2007 14:54:05 -0400

Opportunities and using technology to power the network....where does the real power come from?

Mike Yutrzenka, Executive Director of Cisco Foundation, speaks on the level playing field, quoting Tom Freedman and others on the state of global networks and what we come together to do. He speaks on the move of "global knowledge work" away from silicon valley and out into the villages and communities of leaders in every corner of the world.

There's great potential for new collaborations here and some of that is happening on the N2Y2 backchannel on Meebo: http://www.meebo.com/room/netsquared/

Chris Pirillo and Ponzi Indharasophang are currently organizing the 6th annual Gnomedex tech conference, a successful and unusual part of the tech conference scene. Chris is the founder and tech evangelist of the online publishing group Lockergnome. Ponzi is the CEO of Lockergnome, a producer of various multimedia and a member of the Blogher community.

I caught the two of them at SXSW and asked them to tell me what they've learned about conference organizing in a Web 2.0 world.
