  2. Tom, sorry not to get back to you about this. Good luck, and hope it goes well. Felix spoke to my online course and has some interesting stuff to show.

  3. Looks interesting Tom. I’m curious though why you chose only people from MSM and Corporate Land to lead this conversation about the future. Is it because you see the future of media in Asia to be largely in the hands of existing media brands and corporate entities rather than by grassroots bloggers or startups?
    :P

  4. Rebecca,

    Yes, the idea was specifically to look at some of the established players to see their perspective.

    As incumbents, they will play an important role in the future of media, even if that role is diminished from the past.

    In future gatherings, I hope to take a bottom-up approach.

    Tom

  8. Lonnie and I volunteer to be someone from the bottom-up. We’ll call to register from our pre-paid SIM cards and 1995 phones. Please don’t send us any important info via traditional media as the delivery fan loses his way out here in the sticks of South China. Are there “special blogger” seats at the back for us if we come?

    Really though, it was a great idea to put this on, and we look forward to this event.
