Dave, hi and good morning!

Once again, I'd like to offer IP readers complimentary tickets to a  
conference, and this event is fully accessible via the Web so one can  
attend from almost anywhere.

August 12 is Information Overload Awareness Day. We've made  
arrangements for IPers to attend the half-day Information Overload  
Awareness Day Inaugural Event on a complimentary basis using the guest  
code IPGuest - registration is via http:// 
www.InformationOverloadDay.com.

A key presentation will feature Nathan Zeldes, Intel's former  
Information Overload czar, speaking about his work at Intel and will  
coincide with the release of the forthcoming report, Intel's War  
Against Information Overload.  All attendees will receive a  
complimentary executive summary of this report.

Companies need to focus on what can be done to lessen the impact of  
this problem right now.  The purpose of Information Overload Awareness  
Day is to call attention to these problems and focus on what can be  
done to lessen its impact. It is centered around the Information  
Overload Awareness Inaugural Event – a half-day online gathering of  
senior executives and thought leaders from around the globe.

In addition to the keynote from Nathan Zeldes, speakers will include:
-  Noted authors Maggie Jackson (“Distracted”) and Mike Song (“The  
Hamster Revolution”)
-  Edward Stern, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S.  
Dept. of Labor

(IORG)
-  Anne-Katrin Neyer, School of Business and Economics, University of  
Erlangen-Nürnberg
-  Peter Marksteiner, Colonel, U.S. Air Force
-  Paul Silverman, Integra
-  Christina Randle, The Effective Edge

Executives from a variety of companies including Dow Jones and Morgan  
Stanley.

Overload including Matt Brezina, co-founder, Xobni, Deva Hazarika,  
CEO, ClearContext, Julia White, director of product management,

In addition to the Intel report, IPers will also receive copies of two
