••• A Y+30 panel on how people will communicate in the future, with Josephine Dorado (Kidz Connect, Fractor.org, This Spartan Life), Hilary Mason (bit.ly), Carol Parkinson (Harvestworks, TELLUS), Eric Skiff (NYC Resistor, BarCamp), David Solomonoff (Internet Society of New York, State University of New York, United University Professions), and Jeremy Pesner.
