Participate in the Future of Media Summit blog!

The Future of Media Summit participant blog was recently launched. This is a forum for speakers, partners, and attendees at the Future of Media Summit 2007 to discuss the issues covered at the Summit before, during, and after the event. When you register for the event you will be given a login and instructions to post on this blog (If you have registered recently you will receive your login shortly. Click here for full details on the blog, including how to get a login if you cannot physically attend either the San Francisco or Sydney events).

Last year we only launched the participant blog for the Future of Media Summit 2006 at the time when the actual event kicked off, so we garnered a range of comments during the event itself, then a very healthy and extremely interesting discussion between the event participants in the month after the event.

Check out the Future of Media Summit blog before, during, and after the event - this is where speakers will be providing pre-event insights and perspectives, participants will be live-blogging, and discussion will be engaged after the event.

Also associated content, including the Future of Media Report 2007 and other research will be posted here.

The most recent post on the blog is a reposting of an extremely interesting blog post from Anne-Marie Roussel on collaborative filtering, a topic I believe will be central to the Future of Media. Anne-Marie, who manages Microsoft's entertainment portfolio (Zune, Xbox, Video), will be speaking on the San Francisco side of the Future of Media Summit.
