Going High-End in Media Relations: Quoted in Technology Review and the Wall Street Journal

Yep, it's true. In recent weeks I have been quoted in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal, and just last Monday in the online edition of MIT's Technology Review. I guess it comes of being articulate and credible (not to mention charming and humble); or maybe just of having a good media relations staff at IIT (far more likely).

In the Wall Street Journal I appeared in an article about the validity of Wikipedia entitled “Trusting an Internet Encyclopedia” [subscription required to read] dated 06/17/05. I evaluated several article in areas of personal expertise and commented on them; I did ensure that the interviewer was fully aware that I am a regular contributor/editor of Wikipedia and have written some articles almost in their entirety.

In Tech Review, I was quoted in a article entitled “A Quantum Leap in Cryptography” by Karen Epper Hoffman, dated June 27, 2005, discussing potential uses of quantum cryptography in the real world. Why me? Because I have tracked technology trends and have a record of public speaking on emerging technology.
