Bill Gates discusses the energy future

The third annual Wired Business Conference on Tuesday included a philosophical Bill Gates, an infectiously enthusiastic Martha Stewart, talk of disruptive education, “smart nerd” jobs, predictions of the end of the DVD and freakin’ cool robots. (This is Wired, after all.)

The day was both too short and, for those of us in the press room, way too long. But the networking cocktail hour (actually, 90 minutes) at the end of the day made it all seem just right.
