Description

"Jonathan Zittrain is Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and a co-founder of its Berkman Center for Internet & Society. He is the author of "The Future of the Internet--And How to Stop It." In this keynote talk at Personal Democracy Forum 2008, he discussed how the internet is held together by technologies of cooperation; how the openness that has made the net and the PC powerful forces of "generative" innovation may not last; and what we must do to preserve the future of the open internet. Plus, why the iPhone isn't as cool as it looks, and the "thin nerdy line" between order and chaos online." (http://blip.tv/file/1041921)
