You may have heard of it. You may know a lot about it. Did you know you can listen to some of the speeches and presentations from it on your computer, or as a podcast?
I listened to Bill Clinton's talk (he's so eloquent compared to...), and I was going to listen to Angela Merkel's presentation, except I find it extremely difficult to listen to her in German in the background while someone translates her to English in the foreground.
There are many podcasts and other forms of audio and video archives of the last week in Davos (say dav-OHs not DAH-vos). Right here: http://gaia.unit.net/wef/worldeconomicforum_annualmeeting2006/default.aspx
You may wonder about who attended the WEF 2006. Here's a list.

Faber---Amico fragile
I'm just listening again to the two-CD tribute album to Fabrizio de
André. It's wonderful. Although Fabrizio sang his own songs better
than some of the folks in this concert (it's a matter of taste, isn't
it) there is so much emotion in this recording. Highly recommended!
You can read about it in Italian here.

Another show by myself, JJ was facing an hour wait in either direction at Confusion Hill, which could make the trip four hours total. Better to spend that time outside, where the sun was shining between the clouds, and the soggy ground was slowly draining.
So here's what I played:

Les Matchboxx fauché comme toi from a promo single
Tinu Heiniger, Gueti Zyt, Heimatland
Hamed Daye, Ne me quitte pas, L' hip-hoppée
Mellow Mark, Was geht ab mit der Liebe?, Das 5te Element
Oophoi, Samten, Bardo
Worldnews from Radio Netherlands
Jane Birkin and Caetano Veloso, O leaozinho, Rendez-vous
Lisa, da dove sei, Oceano
Hoven Droven, Norsken, Hippa
Element of Crime, Nur mit Dir, Mittelpunkt der Welt
Swedish news from Radio Sweden
Jolly and the Flytrap, Tout ce que vous voulez, Electric Polka
Autour de Lucie, La verité, immobile
Open Season, Coffee to go, Hot and Fire
Jovanotti, Soleluna, Lorenzo 1994
