At last, we’re finally ready to unveil some details about mesh ‘07! First, we’d like to thank everyone for being so patient – and for all the suggestions, ideas and feedback. You can register and buy tickets here.
Needless to say, we’re very excited about our keynotes. Here’s the line-up:
Michael Arrington, founder/editor of TechCrunch, speaking about new media and journalism in the age of the Web; Jim Buckmaster, CEO of Craigslist, talking about how the Web is disrupting traditional business models; Richard Edelman, CEO of Edelman, on the tension between the openness of the Web and traditional marketing; and Tom Williams, founder of GiveMeaning.com, and Austin Hill, founder of Gifter.org, talking about the Web as a tool for charity.
