Re: [DDN] Let's Nominate Andy for the award
Thanks Steve, thanks Tommy, I appreciate the support.

Telecottages are community technology centers that address a variety of local development needs, from Internet literacy training to e-government services. Hungary's telecottage movement is one of the oldest and best established projects of its kind anywhere in the world, so I'm really looking forward to visiting. Matyas Gaspar, founder of the telecottage movement, will be my host for the week. We'll visit urban telecottages in and around Budapest, as well as in rural areas in southern Transdanubia, just north of the city of Pecs. If all goes well I'll get to visit eight or 10 telecottages, spending the night in at least three different cities (Budapest, Gyorkony and Alsomocsolad). Because I'm visiting Hungary for a book I'm editing on community technology centers around the world, my schedule will be jam-packed with visits to telecottages, as well as interviews with project staff, local users and community leaders. I'll also get to field test my new 8.0 megapixel Konica-Minolta dimage A200 digital camera, which I also plan to use for shooting video blogs. Since I'll be spending most of my time in telecottages, Internet access shouldn't be a major dilemma. So I plan to blog as much as possible during my stay, posting photos, audio and video whenever feasible. So stay tuned from May 11-15; hopefully I'll have some interesting stories to share during that time. Meanwhile, a few days after I get home from Hungary, I'm back on the road again, this time to give a keynote at the GCC e-government conference in Dubai from May 20-25. I plan to talk about "e-government for all," including discussing the recent example of the MyPyramid.gov website and some of the equity challenges facing it. Since Dubai is quite wired as well, I'll try to blog and podcast whenever possible. As always, you can find my posts at www.andycarvin.com.
