Bloggers wanted for UK govt inquiry on future of Net – today!

Glyn sez,

A meeting of the internet's top brass as well as UK politicians, businessmen, and academics will take place in London at 2pm today – and bloggers have been asked to make their voices heard.

Discussion will cover the future of the internet and seek answers to the problems the medium has thrown up, including spam, phishing, freedom of speech, and child pornography. The results will then be fed into a global meeting of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) that will be held in Athens at the end of the month, and that meeting's chair, United Nations representative Nitin Desai, will be present and giving a speech alongside trade minister Alun Michael

So, if you have something to say or just want to hear what the experts think, view the webcast from 2pm and blog on events, tagging posts "igf" or commenting at the IGF2006.info blog.

The full agenda for the meeting is here [pdf].
