Dag :-)

We will be visiting Amsterdam from August 21 to August 27 from
the USA. It would be interesting to explore and converse about
the challenges the Net faces to be helpful equally around the
world. Anyone who would be interested in talking about the value
of the Net in the Netherlands would be nice to meet. 

Some other questions: Are there any newsgroups local to Amsterdam
where we could send a copy of this message? (For example New York
City has a newsgroup, nyc.general that people outside of the city
might not have access or knowledge of.) Are there cybercafes or
Net related events during the week we are visiting? Are there
experimental electronic music gatherings? Is there anything else
of special interest going on the week we will be there? It would
be nice to meet and hear about life in Amsterdam. This will be
our first visit to your city.

In addition, we have given talks at various places about the history
and value of the Net. Would there be any group or
organization that would like to hear our talks? We would be happy
to share these and discuss the various views of others. Some of
our contributions to the Net about these topics are at
http://www.columbia.edu/~hauben/netbook/ and 
http://www.columbia.edu/~hauben/

Please e-mail me at hau...@columbia.edu if you would like to meet
or have some thoughts to share.

Bedankt,

/Michael

(PS: Here in New Amsterdam ;-) it has been enjoyable to meet with
others from around the world who were visiting our city and whom
we had met on-line.)
