I'll be in New York on June 30 moderating a panel discussion on 'Imagining White House 2.0: Making Open Collaboration Platforms Work' at Personal Democracy Forum, the world's largest conference on the intersection of technology and politics.

The panelists are:

Vivek Kundra, CIO of the United States and the man behind data.gov, will be speaking earlier in the day.

I had an amazing experience at PDF last year listening to speakers like Clay Shirky and Lawrence Lessig explore technology's impact on democracy. The only thing missing from the conference was more Canadians.  With the recent spike in public interest in the topic,  and the awareness raised in this country through events like changecamp, I'm hoping to meet more Candian political staffers at PDF this year.

If you're from Canada and attending the conference, let's get in touch.
