Professor Weiser was nice enough to offer some feedback on my commentary on his and Mr. Bleha’s debate on broadband policy:
You[r] post was great and right on. ...
More generally on broadband, another issue is the demand side story, which in South Korea, for example, relates to a story about interactive gaming as a killer application. In the US, the applications that will drive broadband are still developing (like Voice over IP). The best way govt can support broadband is as a model user—say, online egov initiatives—and as supporting a framework that ... addresses issues like digital rights and privacy in a manner that can enable providers of broadband applications to thrive.
Let me also offer a plug for his book, Digital Crossroads, which is on my list. He also directed me to the very dense and interesting Picker MobBlog.
We don't need to meet again for we are just passers by.To forget is the best commemoration for each other.
