Web 2.0 in NY

I will be attending next week’s Web 2.0 Expo 2008 in New York.

The Keynote titles gives you an indication of the variety of talks expected.

  • Organizing Chaos: The Growth of Collaborative Filters
  • (Re)making the Internet: Accounting for the Future of Information, Communication and Entertainment Technologies
  • Next Generation of Video Games
