Thursday, May 26 Monthly Speaker Series: Interview with Kevin Kelly
Join us at 10:30am PT / 1:30pm ET / 6:30pm UTC on Air Mozilla and at our Mozilla San Francisco Commons to hear Wired Founder and Senior Maverick and Futurist Kevin Kelly share on "Twelve Technology Forces Shaping the Next 30 Years." Our own John Jensen will interview Kevin, drawing off of Kelly's upcoming book, "The Inevitable," to explore these longer-term trends and what they mean for those of us building the technology and helping influence the protocols and policies to support it.
Full details on the Speaker Series page.*Speakers
The limit is 3 minutes per topic. It's like a lightning talk, but don't feel that you have to have slides in order to make a presentation. If you plan on showing a video, you need to contact the Air Mozilla team before the day of the meeting or you will be deferred to the next week. The meeting is streamed in a 4:3 format in order to allow for split screen. If your slides are 16:9 "widescreen" format, please indicate in the "Sharing" column below.
