Skoll World on The Conversations Network

I’m thrilled to announce that we will be podcasting the 2007 Skoll World Forum on Social Entrepreneurship on the Social Innovation Conversations channel of The Conversations Network. Through the hard work of Bernadette Clavier at our partner, the Center for Social Innovation at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, we expect to publish all of the audio from this great event being held at the end of March at Oxford University. The list of speakers reads like the “Oscars” of the social-entrepreneuring world including Muhammad Yunus, Larry Brilliant and Bill Drayton.

ETech 2007

I’ll be at O’Reilly Media’s Emerging Technology Conference (ETech) next week in San Diego. I wasn’t going to make it there this year — too much work to do here — but in addition to the always-great sessions, two things helped change my mind.

Phil Windley, Executive Producer of IT Conversations, has organized a meetup Tuesday night. If you’ll be at ETech or just hanging around San Diego, please join us. You can get the details and sign up on Eventful.

Werner Vogels, CTO of Amazon, is the keynote speaker (Tuesday morning) and he’s asked me to give a short presentation on how we’ve used Amazon’s Web Services as the infrastructure for GigaVox Audio Lite.

See you in San Diego.
