Mark and Tom et all, a two days conference live on the web by George Gilder. It is called the second telecosm conference. forbes.com the big event to me is today,I fell asleep listening to yesterdays,it is ok,more of an overview. THE FOLLOWING EVENT IS 1:30 pm -2:30 pm Bandwidth Blowout Enablers In the Telecosmic era, rather than using transistor switches and power to compensate for inadequate bandwidth, successful companies will use bandwidth to make up for inadequate power and silicon area. The new Intels will race down the learning curve with ever more cost effective broadband optical components. The all optical network is a new form of integrated circuit. Just as the original IC of Noyce and Moore ultimately put an entire computing system on a single sliver of silicon, so the new integrated circuit promises to put an entire communications system on a seamless seine of silica. If you are in the optical business and grasp the new reality, it is time for a party.
