Keynote Address:
Puberty - The Approach to Maturity
Heidi Heiden, UUNET Technologies
Heidi Heiden will deliver a report card on this 15-year-old and discuss its past, present and future. In the beginning there were twins. One died. Is the other out of control? At 15 years of age, the Internet is a precocious adolescent, still growing explosively, sometimes lacking fine motor coordination, and driven to explore all kinds of possibly dangerous behavior by wild hormonal urges. What's it like to live with this party animal? How will it mature? What it will look like at 25?
