[NCUC-DISCUSS] NEW NCUC Members' Blog launches with Ben Akinmoyeje

[William Drake]

Hi

Many thanks to Stefania for setting up the space, and to Ben for providing our first entry.  We have a lot of members who have things big and small to say about ICANN and Internet governance, and it’d be great to have them share their views with colleagues in this more lasting format rather than in just fleeting email discussions.  The blog space is very much open to newbies, veterans, and everyone in between.  Contributions could be a couple paragraphs or a couple pages, whatever you have the time and inclination to contribute.  If you’ve got an idea you'd like to explore, just drop me or any of the EC members a line and we’ll follow up with you.

Cheers

Bill

His blog post summarizes five of the many sessions he attended in Singapore, and is an excellent way to discover the 'behind the scenes' of an ICANN meeting.
