Come on Everybody, Let’s mesh
By Mark Evans | March 25, 2008
After a lot of behind-scenes-planning, several animated discussions and some last-minute flurry of activity, mesh ‘08 is now live!
We’re really excited about the speakers we’ve got lined up. Our keynotes include Matt Mason, whose new book The Pirate’s Dilemma looks at the implications of digital piracy; Club Penguin co-founder Lane Merrifield, a Canadian who helped build a virtual world for children that was acquired by Disney for $380-million; and Ethan Kaplan, the head of technology at Warner Brothers Records. We’ll be announcing more speakers and details about mesh panels and workshops soon.
If you don’t know already, mesh is happening May 21/22. Tickets are $469 each, and there are 30 student tickets for $30 apiece. You can purchase tickets here. For more details about mesh ‘08, check out the mesh blog.
In addition to mesh, we’re also announcing meshU, a one-day event with small, focused workshops that we hope will meet the need for practical, down-to-earth information about tools, knowledge and expertise for startups, web designers and developers of all kinds. Tickets are $239, and be purchased here.
