Asia - December 1999 press

    Friday, December 17, 1999
    Sending time with the press is always a pleasure. I always feel like I learn more than they do! Hearing their questions, interacting with them, and especially reading the stories they write really refines my thinking. Follwing is some of the coverage that resulted and a list of the publications and reporters I met with. My discussion with them focused on IBM's vision of the next generation of the Internet which you can learn more about at http://www.ibm.com/NGi.
