Next @ NY:MIEG on December 17th

2008 Looking Back/2009 Looking Ahead - Join our special guests: George Kliavkoff, Chief Digital Officer at NBC Universal and Limor Schafman, President of the KeystoneTech Group on Wednesday December 17th from 7:30am to 9:30am at the Samsung Experience at Time Warner Center.

Chances are the next big digital media company won’t be built on a new technology…it will likely be built with existing technology, by figuring out how to perfect it.

However,  if successful digital media companies like Google, YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, Digg, companies have taught us anything, it’s that the technology is in fact secondary…it’s the people that matter. All of these companies understood that the web isn’t just about technology or about content…it’s about people using technology, people creating content.

Google,for example,  figured out that when people search for something on the web, they don’t want to go to a cluttered, head-ached inducing portal page. They don’t want winking, blinking rich media. People just want to type words in a box and get a bunch of links.
