All,
Perhaps I should clarify my stance. I am an advocate of virtual conferencing,
especially as it applies to the Digital Divide - because of the opportunity it
offers those who cannot afford to travel from different parts of the world as
well as the environmental benefits inherent in such an approach. Anyone with
access to the internet can participate, especially in free conferences like the
one I am currently promoting (see my last post). I would never suggest all
conferences take this approach- as I stated before there is inherent value in
face-to-face contact. These types of conferences represent terrific potential,
however, in their own right - coupled with efforts to make internet access
universally accessible such efforts help educate and connect the world.
My apologies If I misrepresented earlier!
Best Regards,
Sudhir
