I’m sad that I won’t be available – but there’s going to be an online radio show on US Ignite later today (1:00 PM – I assume Pacific Time) hosted by Craig Settles. Call in questions are welcome.  Here’s a description from the site:

US Ignite launched last week with a big White House gathering, and has been riding a huge wave of publicity and questions. Lots of questions. Today we hope to get quite a few of yours answered.

US Ignite founding partners Sue Spradley and Joe Kochan join us in a special 90-minute show to talk about the program, separate hype from reality and discuss how your community can benefit from the program. This is a hot topic and we expect many of our listeners to call to exchange thoughts with Sue and Joe.

Here’s my initial take on the US Ignite announcement, and also some thoughts on President Obama’s Executive Order to streamline broadband network buildouts.
