Due to severe blizzards in the Washington DC area Lee Rainie (Director of the Pew Internet & American Life Project) is unable to come to Melbourne to give his VALA2010 keynote address. The VALA2010 Committee would like to express its concerns for Lee and his family. Due to electrical outages Lee was also unable to be broadcast into the VALA2010 conference.
While the VALA Committee are disappointed Lee can’t be in Melbourne this summer, we would like to inform delegates that an alternative Keynote event has being organised with the co-operation of other Keynotes and speakers.
Details on this alternate event will be announced during the conference, and made available on the VALA web site.
