Social Media Hour - #28

It's preaching to the choir a bit to say in this forum that technology is impacting our world. After all, if you follow this program with any regularity it's probably because you're deeply steeped in the stuff. That said, it's not often that the program gets to take a truly deep look into the way that technology is fostering the kind of social change that has been heralded. This week that changes. Starting with guest Gary Bolles for a conversation about how the conference business has evolved and where online and offline meet. Also this week Carnegie Institute senior fellows Rita King and Josh Fouts, along with Millions of US CEO Reuben Steiger to discuss the role virtual worlds play in helping heal rifts between cultures - in this case, specifically addressing the Muslim world. And we'll be broadcasting live from Citizen Space, joined by CS resident, Hillary Hartley.
