This morning as I rewatched some of the stellar presentations, read some of the media coverage and thought over the discussions at Green:Net 2010 yesterday, I was truly energized by how much we accomplished. Thank you to all that made the second annual Green:Net — the only event that looks at how computing, software, the web can fight climate change — possible. Here’s a round up of some of the amazing talks and presentations (including full video clips), as well as a list of media coverage (and here’s our Flickr photos of the show):
