It has been 1 year since our last episode and just FYI, I have been working with HP, in their Software group. We are now bringing the podcast back to life with the help of Lalith Patwa - a first year MBA student from India.
Lalith will be helping me with the podcast and we will try to release episodes whenever we can.
So as a come back, we could not have a better episode! This was a Web 2.0 panel organized by Joyce Solano, also a 1st year MBA student, and thanks to her we had amazing speakers coming to USF:
Matt Mullenweg - founder of Wordpress – an opensource blogging software, which is actually the one we use in this website.
Krista Canfield - PR Manager from LinkedIn – the business networking website.
Daniel Bernstein - Director of Business Development for Meebo – a web based chat tool.
The panel was moderated by our charismatic Prof JP Allen.
