They have all spoken at GigaOM events in the past and frankly I am just bowled over to be on a list with these luminaries. These folks have contributed so much in this world and to be mentioned on the same page is amazing. Thanks Dataquest!
A few days ago, I interviewed Josh Silverman, former chief executive of Skype at the Entrepreneur Summit at the Endeavor conference in San Francisco. I was supposed to interview Josh at our Net:Work conference in December 2010 but things didn’t work out at that time. I quite enjoyed this conversation and learned a lot from Josh’s insights. Hope you enjoy the video.
