Marc Canter at the Enterprise Ireland Web 2.0 event

Enterprise Ireland held a Web 2.0 event in Dublin. The speaker list was very impressive and Enterprise Ireland asked me to publish mp3s of the speakers’ talks. Unfortunately the speakers weren’t wearing lapel mics so the sound quality varies as they get closer to and further from the stand mic.

The second speaker of the day was Marc Canter. Marc was one of the co-founders of MacroMind, the company which went on to become Macromedia. Marc is a recognized figure in the sphere of open standards, social networks and blogging, and has been interviewed and quoted on the subject matter in numerous publications. Marc is also a contributer to many open standards efforts and is champion for end-user controlled digital identities and content.

He is the founder and CEO of Broadband Mechanics, a digital lifestyle aggregator (DLA) company.

In his talk at the Web 2.0 conference Marc spoke about focussing on delivering compelling experiences for end users, developing open standards and how to make money using Web 2.0 technologies.
