On the eve of the 30th birthday of TED, we wanted to share Boingo founder Sky Dayton's presentation from TED 2001 in Monterey, CA. During his TED Talk, he discussed Packetspace where the Internet would exist in the air that you breathe.
Over the past 15 years, Sky has founded and built companies like Boingo--where he currently serves as Chairman of the Board--that have helped to propel the Internet into our everyday lives.
In 1994 at the age of 23, he founded EarthLink, which grew to serve millions of consumers and helped usher in the Internet revolution.
