		<description><![CDATA[Here is one panel from a spoof by the Sad and Useless comedy blog of a 2007 joint interview Walt Mossberg and I did with Apple CEO Steve Jobs and Bill Gates of Microsoft at the D: All Things Digital conference.

The idea of filling in the blank for a trio of photos of the pair of tech legends is a really interesting way to do crowd-sourced comics.

But some efforts, as you will see, are funnier than others (and many are simply juvenile, which is par for the course with these social group efforts).]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is one panel from a spoof by the <a href="http://www.sadanduseless.com/2010/05/steve-jobs-vs-bill-gates/">Sad and Useless</a> comedy blog of a <a href="http://d5.allthingsd.com/20070531/video-steve-jobs-and-bill-gates-highlight-reel/">2007 joint interview</a> Walt Mossberg and I did with Apple (AAPL) CEO Steve Jobs and Bill Gates of Microsoft (MSFT) at the <strong>D: All Things Digital</strong> conference.</p>
<p>The idea of filling in the blank for a trio of photos of the pair of tech legends is a really interesting way to do crowd-sourced comics.</p>
<p>But some efforts, as you will see, are funnier than others (and many are simply juvenile, which is par for the course with these social group efforts).</p>
<p>You can download a <a href="http://www.sadanduseless.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/jobs-vs-gates.jpg">template here</a> and make your own.</p>
<p>One note: <strong>All Things Digital</strong> does not mind spoofing photos&#8211;we do them all the time&#8211;but the photos should be credited to Asa Mathat.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning, BoomTown will be onstage at California First Lady Maria Shriver's well-known Women's Conference in Long Beach, Calif., to moderate a panel titled "Changing the World Through the Web."

The panelists include Hollywood actor/producer, Katalyst co-founder and Twitter demigod Ashton Kutcher; Facebook's Randi Zuckerberg; Premal Shah of Kiva.org; and Blue State Digital's Joe Rospars, who was also new media director for Barack Obama's presidential campaign.

In other words, as a group, they are all either prettier, smarter or better for the planet than anything I have ginned up so far.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2009/10/ashton-kutcher-beats-cnn-twitter-300x300.jpg"><img src="http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2009/10/ashton-kutcher-beats-cnn-twitter-300x300-250x250.jpg" alt="ashton-kutcher-beats-cnn-twitter-300x300" title="ashton-kutcher-beats-cnn-twitter-300x300" width="250" height="250" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-19964" /></a></p>
<p>This morning, BoomTown will be onstage at California First Lady Maria Shriver&#8217;s well-known Women&#8217;s Conference in Long Beach, to moderate a panel titled <a href="http://www.californiawomen.org/breakout-conversations-agenda/#morning">&#8220;Changing the World Through the Web&#8221;</a> for a crowd of 1,800 people.</p>
<p>The panelists for my session at what has become one of the top forums for women&#8217;s issues include Hollywood actor/producer, Katalyst co-founder and Twitter demigod Ashton Kutcher (pictured above, of course); Facebook&#8217;s Randi Zuckerberg, who leads the social networking site&#8217;s elections, breaking news and social change initiatives; Premal Shah, president of online microloan site Kiva.org; and Joe Rospars, founder and creative director of Blue State Digital and new media director for Barack Obama&#8217;s presidential campaign.</p>
<p>In other words, as a group, they are all either prettier, smarter or better for the planet than anything I have ginned up so far.</p>
<p>But, to be safe, send some question suggestions quick that you think I should ask in the interview&#8211;via Twitter <a href="http://twitter.com/karaswisher">@karaswisher</a>.</p>
<p>In any case, I shall press on and try to conduct myself with some kind of tech dignity, as I query the group on how the Web&#8211;especially social media&#8211;can empower people to change the world and be more than just one big pool of mundanities, meaningless status updates, silly apps and online gossip.</p>
<p><a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2009/10/CroppedImage160180-kate-gosselin-th.jpg"><img src="http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2009/10/CroppedImage160180-kate-gosselin-th.jpg" alt="CroppedImage160180-kate-gosselin-th" title="CroppedImage160180-kate-gosselin-th" width="160" height="180" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-19965" /></a></p>
<p>Speaking of which, it was a minor shock to run smack into reality show whatever-she-is Kate Gosselin at a speaker party last night, who is here to flack a book about&#8211;of course&#8211;her kids, titled &#8220;Eight Little Faces.&#8221;</p>
<p>No, I did <em>not</em> make that title up and I suppose it takes all kinds.</p>
<p>But it was especially surreal, since other speakers include&#8211;how shall I put this delicately?&#8211;much more serious and substantial women, such as primatology legend Dr. Jane Goodall, women&#8217;s rights activist Eve Ensler, Obama Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett, a spate of women news legends such as Katie Couric, and even&#8211;my personal favorite, for her cheery butter-loving nature&#8211;celebrity chef Paula Deen.</p>
<p>For those interested in seeing some of the all-day event online, there&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.californiawomen.org/the-womens-conference-2009/">live Webcast from the Web site</a>, which you can access here (the Twitter hashtag is <a href="http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23WC09">#wc09</a></p>
<p>I will, natch, post a video report later.</p>
