For anyone who wasn’t there in person, or who just wants to see it again, here is a video of the short speech I made in Dearborn at ARIN XXIV last Wednesday: You can view all of the Board of Trustees and Advisory Council candidates speeches along with their bio’s at the ARIN Election Headquarters [...]
