OSHEAN CF08 Live Blog 1

The theme for CF08 is "The Digital Citizen - Rights, Responsibilities and Impacts." The program centers on three storytellers, each bringing a unique perspective on the Digital Citizen. 

First up is Heidi Wachs, Director of IT Policy and Privacy Officer for Georgetown University. She's also a member of the EDUCAUSE Network Policy Council, having served as the organization's Government Affairs Officer before joining Georgetown. EDUCAUSE seeks to promote the intelligent use of technology in higher education, giving her important insights for this highly-focused group.

Next, we'll have Paul Jones founder of ibiblio.org, home to one of the largest collection of collections on the Internet. The conservancy of freely available information includes software, music, literature, art, history, science, politics and cultural studies. He is also a long-standing and long-haired member of the Luxuriant Flowing Hair Club for Scientists. 'Nuff said.

Finally, RISD's General Counsel and Internet Law professor Steven McDonald will discuss the tangled cluster of legal issues swirling around the Internet. McDonald is also a member of EDUCAUSE.

Somebody is setting up a video camera and struggling to get the audio feed. Assuming success, they'll be uploading the session next Monday. Uh, oh. The room is starting to fill up. I better run to the bar and get ready to blog my little fingers off.
