Tracking the Internet into the 21st Century with Vint Cerf
In this talk, given in Zürich, Switzerland on 22 November, Vint addresses
the history of the internet, current status of the Internet, some of the technology changes that are driving its evolution, and some of the global policy issues that have to be dealt with. It's 80 minutes long, so you're only going to like it if your a big technology buff and interested in the network aspect of the internet engineering.

Quote: "The internet is the most democratic communication system we've ever had because it allows so many people to introduce content and to share it and exchange it. But humanity is what it is. For humanity to become a just and democratic society, it will take a large adjustment of the human beings that make up that society, not just the technology that surrounds them"
