Weirdest global summit on the globe

A point of view by Bruce Sterling at Worldchanging regarding the WSIS

Interesting.

Although he says « diplomats abandoned their podiums to go mix it up with hardware vendors. That behavior is unheard of », which suggests that he is not familiar with ITU activities, besides the fact that it is an old organisation, the conclusion is « Imagine that — what if that actually worked? ». Which is hard to disagree with…

Worth reading. (I have reservations concerning the link to the WSF issues however)
