Hi everyone,

We're holding a group discussion tomorrow on the topic "What skills  
are needed for next internet ?" I'll be asking questions to the panel  
and I thought I'd ask the NZ 2.0 group if there any questions that  
you would like to ask.

Let me know if you have any good questions, and I'll ask our panel on  
your behalf.

Panel:
  Mr GeekZone - Mauricio Freitas
  Mr Web 2.0 - Richard MacManus
  Mr NZ Computer Society - Paul Matthews
  Mr Digital Development Council - Paul Alexander

BTW It's a free event, rsvp if you want to come along or check out  
the video after the event at bliptv - http://summerofcode.blip.tv/

Background

The discussion is a primer for the SoC students and companies on what  
will be important skills in the future. The NZ Summer of Code is the  
top ICT internship programme in NZ and its goal is to accelerate the  
development of ICT students. So we're looking for what skills are  
going to be important in the future. eg. What's the hottest ticket in  
the next 3-4 years? Web, Rails, Mobile, Cloud computing ??? We'll be  
asking our panel for the inside scoop on what's going to important  
for the next internet.

Help us decide !

What part will the "tangible" play in the future of the Web? e.g. low
end embedded hardware projects (like 'Arduino'), sensor platforms,
ubicomp etc.
