This afternoon I’ll be speaking at a community forum for The Knight Commission on the Information Needs of Communities in a Democracy. The commission was created by the Knight Foundation and the Aspen Institute. According to the commission’s Web site:

“The Knight Commission on the Information Needs of Communities in a Democracy is a 15-member commission of luminaries assembled to recommend both public and private measures that would help American communities better meet their information needs.”

The forum is being held on the Google campus in Mountain View starting at 9 a.m. local time. I’m speaking on a panel in the afternoon on “technology and innovation.” I’ll post a link to a copy of my remarks after the event.

I think this is critical work, given the changing landscape for news and information. If you have time, you can follow the live Web cast here.
