I am ignorant of a lot of things and with technology moving so quickly I want to get up to speed fast. Every Sunday I would like to pick a restaraunt or apt in ny to have several of us hear sides of a topic and understand what is going on in that realm.
so what if we develop a commited list of informal panelists, ask grace to choose our venue, and invite the best and the brightest to discuss a set list of topics for a few weeks. Remove the eliteism and just sit down with those in the know and get up to speed…
would like to do 15 shows to start – need topics help!
putting together a topics list:
- html 5 video discussion with ogg theora (paging Emmett Plant and Dan Miller.)
- tech and small business
- politech
- the future of flash
- print v/s digital journalism
- web show production
- web design methods and resoures
- personal micro manufacturing (maker bot and beyond)
