Meet the Speakers Part 8: Jonathan Schwartz

Just short of Jonathan Schwartz's keynote conversation this morning, here's a preview for those of you who can't be here.  The CEO of Sun will be speaking with our very own Tim O'Reilly.

What is your talk about? Why should attendees come to it?

Schwartz It's about everything - from how cool it is to have coined the phrase "the network is the computer" just in time for cloud computing to emerge (again), to the future of free software and the intentionality of my social graph. 

What's the most important, cool, scary, or useful product or technology (not made by your company) that's recently arrived or on the horizon?

Nintendo DS - because it's stolen both of my children, and is an incredibly cool two screen wifi product. And my Garmin Nuvi nav device, which was sadly stolen by someone who just busted the window on my car.

Rumor has it I set them up to steal it so I could upgrade to Garmin's new phone. 

Aside from your own talk, what's the most interesting / entertaining speaker, talk or panel happening at Web 2.0 Expo?

"What MySpace Knows" has gotta be fascinating, because they haven't even identified a speaker yet - that plus the title make me think they're going to tell us something really creepy about Tim O'Reilly.
