The Internet has a great future behind it… –Jon Crowcroft
From the daily archives:
Ethan Zuckerman posted a comprehensive look at the Negroponte talk on his One Laptop Per Child project. It’s like he posted from my notes, only better. When I get back to the land of staid and stable networking, I’ll probably post further on the project in the context of MIT and its focus on “big vision projects.” But I won’t have as much detail or insight as Ethan provides on OLPC.

Search the tag IS2K7 for better information on UNIVERSITY – Knowledge Beyond Authority. Highpoints for me were: listening to Nicholas Negroponte, Charles Ogletree, and John Palfrey; a workshop with Anne Margulies; and, meeting Ethan Zuckerman, Cathy Norton and Jessamyn West. I was glad to see a couple of friends, and frustrated by my own outsiderness at a gathering of insiders. I was left with a gloomy sense that nothing I can do will influence the academic publishers to adopt better business models.
Doc Searls wrote an upbeat post yesterday. I hope I have more to say later after I get home. Right now I’m fighting with a hotel connection and that’s my excuse for this crappy post.
