Tech Daily Dose: The Scobleizer Does D.C. http://techdailydose.nationaljournal.com/2008/06/the-scobleizer-does-dc.php?rss=1 en Copyright 2010 Tue, 24 Jun 2008 02:40:39 GMT http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/ http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification The Scobleizer Does D.C. Guess who's coming to Washington this week? A pair of outside-the-Beltway Internet visionaries: Robert Scoble and Gary Vaynerchuk. The former is a blogger, technical evangelist and author best known for his Scobleizer blog, which became a must-read in the high-tech community during his tenure at Microsoft. The latter has been called "the first wine guru of the Web video era."

While in Washington, Scoble expects to meet with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi; House Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet Chairman Ed Markey, D-Mass.; Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.; FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein; National Cable and Telecommunications Association President Kyle McSlarrow, and others.

On Wednesday evening, Scoble and Vaynerchuk will booze and schmooze with D.C. politicos and techies at MCCXXII. Capitol Valley Media has been working hard to plan the event with the help of Frank Gruber and the Social Times. RSVP here. Follow Scoble during his journey on his Qik channel, Twitter feed and through his FriendFeed.
