Last week’s ASPEN IDEAS FESTIVAL once again brought together some very impressive participants and the presenters’ videos have been posted. For those not familiar with the annual festival, here’s a blurb from the organizers:
Imagine some of the most inspired and provocative writers, artists, scientists, business people, teachers and leaders – drawn from myriad fields, from across the country and from around the world – all gathered in a single place, ready to teach, speak, lead, question and answer – all interacting with an audience of thoughtful people, who have stepped back from their day-to-day routines to delve deeply into a world of ideas, thought and discussion.
I haven’t had a chance to sample many of the video clips yet. But one of the more enjoyable so far has been Walt Mossberg’s entertaining talk on The Future of the Internet and the Rise of the Cell Phone. Among other things, he suggests the interesting, broader implications of the device “formerly known as the cell phone,” (aka smart phone).
