Two Panels in Three Days

This week was busy with the NDU panel on Thursday and the v-business Expo today.
It was fun and exciting to see PEOPLE get the value of a sensory web and 3D Internet.
We humans are so adaptive! I can't imagine what life will be like when this is the norm.

A recap from the panels:
Thursday's panel was focused on People inside the 3D Internet. It was wonderful, with (given in the order they were seated) David Kralik from America's Solutions, Tammy Johns, Manpower and Rita King and Josh Fouts from Dancing Inc. with Nick Wilson, Clever Zebra holding us up on the mixed media virtual environment side. Each had something very valuable to contribute, considering their part in working with people to advance the future of work, diplomacy, staffing and policy. I can't say enough about the extremely well thought out responses and ideas the panel provided.
Saturday was more of a presentation. I truly enjoyed my Saturday mid day at Clever Zebra Island sharing with people from around the world, my perspective on 3D Internet. From the evolution of the web to the future of 3D Internet, I truly believe we have a great opportunity and I'm thankful as a futurist to be able to share my insight on the needs and challenges in this space. Nick Wilson, his team and sponsors have really done a nice job in holding real virtual expos and I expect others will quickly follow this lead.
Cheers to those who are stepping up: Paulette Robinson, Nick Wilson and the many folks giving unselfishly to speak out and LEAD this era. As I said on Thursday, if it were not for 3D Internet we (and the number continues to grow) would not be together-- Crossing the Loosely Coupled Divide of this Globally Integrated World.
