Arianna Huffington

The bad news today was that our 6pm flight that was scheduled to arrive in Chicago at 12:01 am is now delayed and I just got an email update that said our flight would be arriving at about 3-something am. The good news was that I was able to see Arianna Huffington (Huffington Post) speak when I would have missed it to get to the airport. The speakers here at the Mountain View office are amazing. Ben Cohen yesterday and Michael Bloomberg the day before.. but this was the first one I was able to attend. Then again, Vint Cerf was a speaker when I was in the New York office…. but he’s a Google employee now, so that may not even count.

    On March 2007, Alessandro Sorbello of New Realm Media http://www.newrealm.com.au interviewed Dr Vinton Cerf who was in Brisbane Australia to present ‘Internet, Infinity and Beyond’ excerpts from Dr. Cerf’s presentation are available online at New Realm. Mr Sorbello http://www.AlessandroSorbello.com posed questions to Dr. Cerf relating to the development of the Internet and its role in today’s society and what we can expect in the future. The interplanetary internet is set to change the face of communication not only on our planet, but also in the way we communicate with our technology in space.

    Dr. Cerf replied when asked a question by Mr Sorbello, “I can speculate about one other thing a large number of senses are going to be on the network, billions of these things scattered a letter the world in parks, building stinky wearing ties its in offices at that time in order to keep track for example what’s going on in the world around us and global warming is a big issue in some of the things that we need to know are going to be derived from major sensory networks which a part of the network but also you can imagine the systems are aware of this building like it and when here who is in here and how should I adapt my behavior to be more effective for the people who are in here that kind of responsiveness is possible as the world in which we live in becomes more aware of us as opposed to how we have to adapt to it.”
