Hey Reader E-mail me! I will be in Beijing for the Olympics and in India for the next few weeks
Dear YouMeiTI readers, as some of you may know I have been in the first few years of course work for my phd program. The amount of time I spend on academic writing has seriously decreased my blog activity here - so sad! I will pick up the pace again when I am done with coursework in December 2008!
In the meantime, I will participate in a conference on Chinese, India and US technology and trade policy at the Bangalore Institute of Technology. I am really excited for this conference as it will bring together an impressive list of experts who work in pharmaceuticals, coal and information technology. I look forward to my role as the sociologist to question how national policies interface with everyday life! After that I will be doing fieldwork with my colleague, Shannon Spanhake, from CalIT2, on developing technology for monitoring drinkable water. So if you are in India, send me a an email about any interesting stories to blog! I will be there until the 24th of July.
From Bangalore i will go to Beijing for a few weeks to finish up a project that i've been working on: Beijing Youth Voices, which is a collaboration between Adobe Youth Voices and What Kids Can Do. So send me an email if you will also be in Beijing! Perhaps we can also meet up to talk about technology and policy and of course the Olympics:)!
See you in Bejing!
