Hope The Woz has a good segue between his talks on the modern world of social networking and mobile phones.

Kathy never met a chance to warm up someone...

"Hope The Woz has a good segue . . . "

NICE ! !

Very subtle.

P.S. Woz is probably tired of beating the red carpet by now.

I know WOZ played an important role in the beginning but really what has he done lately to garner so much attention?

Who cares what he has to say. I'm finding that the Woz is becoming less and less pertinent to todays technology.
