David Smith's (theGFF) presentation at MidemNet 2009: CHANGE. Now.

David Smith is the CEO of the Global Futures Forum, and I was delighted to be able to have him join me at the MidemNet Future Scenarios event here in Cannes, France, along with the brilliant and snappy Mark "Herdmeister" Earls (will add his slides here, shortly, too). David did a great job presenting the key future trends to the MIDEM audience - here is the PDF!  Enjoy.

While the audio & video quality leaves something to be desired, these video blog posts offer some good insights, featuring people like Terry McBride (Nettwerk Music Group), Ted Cohen (TAG), Ralph Simon (MEF), Fergal Sharkey (UK Music), Denzyl Feigelson (Apple & AWAL), David Eun (Google) and... me ;). Check out the MidemNet blog here, and some related content, below, including the BBC: "Author and self-styled "media futurist" Gerd Leonhard said fighting file-sharing had been fruitless, and it was time to grant permission and collect royalties. As well as asking fans to pay, Mr Leonhard suggested money could come from advertising, sponsorship, subsidies from internet service providers or portable player manufacturers...."

Trip sharing site Dopplr sends out first annual report on my travel habits: way cool! Dopplr rocks! The free service allows you to publish and share your travels with others, get input from people who have also been there (hotels, restaurants etc) and maybe meet with people in your network that are also be close-by. I have been using it for some time now (albeit not nearly enough) and it is become very valuable, indeed. I have met some very nice people this way, while reconnecting with others that are in my network but have been 'dormant'. So today, the Dopplr people topped it all by sending me a free report with some very juicy morsels of information about my travel habits and history (see some excerpts below). These numbers are even scarier than I thought since I did not even share all trips with Dopplr, during 2008, but still - great intel to have. Keep it up, guys!
