<p>BoomTown just got to Paris, as in France, to attend and moderate sessions for the third annual Le Web conference.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.lewebparis.com/">Le Web</a> is organized by Loïc and Geraldine Le Meur, with 1,500 people signed up to hear a range of Internet players, many of whom are from the U.S., tomorrow and Wednesday.</p>
<p>U.S. speakers include TED&#8217;s Chris Anderson, News Corp. (NWS) social-networking site MySpace&#8217;s Amit Kapur, Marissa Mayer of Google (GOOG), Linda Avey of 23andMe, LinkedIn&#8217;s Reid Hoffman, and Dan&#8217;l Lewin of Microsoft (MSFT).</p>
<p>And some interesting European execs include France Telecom Orange Chairman and CEO Didier Lombard, and Jacques-Antoine Granjon, CEO and co-founder of a very interesting fashion sale site, Vente-Privee.com.</p>
<p>Of course, there&#8217;s a passel of bloggers here like BoomTown. I&#8217;ll be interviewing Werner Vogels, CTO of Amazon (AMZN) and well-known Israeli entrepreneur Yossi Vardi.</p>
<p>Besides this conference, Loïc Le Meur has been trying to make a go of it with his San Francisco-based start-up Seesmic, which&#8211;like a lot of Web 2.0 companies&#8211;<a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/20081027/a-pictures-worth-a-thousand-words-so-what-does-a-big-smile-in-a-layoff-story-mean/">has recently made cutbacks</a>. See my video interview below with him in better times, when I visited Seesmic in February.</p>
<p>You can also watch the conference streamed live from its site. More shaky&#8211;but <em>Frenchtastic</em>, although <a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/20081009/dear-web-20-you-might-want-to-stop-believin/">no lip-synching extravaganzas</a> for me!&#8211;videos from me at Le Web to come, of course.</p>

<p><em>[Full disclosure: My partner, Google exec Megan Smith (<a href="http://allthingsd.com/about/kara-swisher/ethics/">you can read all about it here in detail</a>), is judging a start-up competition at Le Web on Wednesday. But I am trying to find an excuse not to go to that panel, because I always nod off at those things, even if the crazy version of Britney Spears were a judge. Instead, I hopefully will be enjoying the lovely artwork at the Louvre right then.]</em></p>
