Congratulations to Professor Michael Geist, who has received a 2008 Electronic Frontier Foundation Pioneer Award.
The award recognises “significant and influential contributions to the development of computer-mediated communications and to the empowerment of individuals in using computers and the Internet.”
Michael was a keynote speaker at the VALA 2008 conference in Melbourne earlier this month.
We at the Information Futures Commission were delighted to welcome Michael to the Melbourne University campus, where he delivered the second Information Futures Forum lecture for 2008 — a video of Michael’s presentation is available online.
