If the snowstorm stops and my plane is able to take off, I’ll be heading to Davos, Switzerland on Monday for the World Economic Forum.
I’ll be moderating a panel on China and speaking on another panel on blogging.
Mainly, though, I’ll be blogging on the Forum Blog. Davos bloggers will include some other blogger/journalist hybrids like myself, some people from the tech community, and at least one celebrity (stay tuned for who). This is the first year that the World Econ Forum will have a blog for its annual meeting. It’s an experiment in greater openness, and an effort by the WEF to have a more direct conversation with the world at large. So please visit often, link to it, comment, and let us know in the comments if you agree with what people are saying, disagree, have questions, or think it’s total bunk.
Quite a lot of sessions will be webcast this year. Webcast information is here, though the times have not yet been posted. Also check out the full Davos program, plus more detailed information about the Open Forum sessions – sessions you can just show up for without a Davos invitation, if you can get yourself there…
Turns out there’s already a Davos del.icio.us tag for articles and blog posts on the Davos meeting. Please feel free to tag anything you see being written about the Davos goings-on that you’d like everybody else in cyberspace to know about. I’ll do a Technorati tag too, as soon as I sort that out (haven’t had time to play with Technorati tags yet).
It will be interesting to see if Whiskey Bar blogs Davos anonymously again this year. He did some rather razor-sharp blogging from there last year.
