Al Gore in Rome: a success for the launch of italian Current_TV
I’m just back from Rome, where I witnessed the launch of the italian Current_TV, the first non-english-speaking version of it.
I was invited at Jovinelli theatre together with about four hundred of other bloggers, technologists, journalists, students and such. It was a great idea (thank to friendly and hyper-energic Marco Montemagno and others), and a great occasion to meet some bloggers that I read, but never met in real life (Paolo Valdemarin, Massimo Mantellini…).
Al Gore, founder of Current_TV, was the main guest.
Enjoy some pictures I’ve taken with my modest Canon EOS 400D (you find these, and other, creative commons Attribution-only photos on my flickr account) :-)

Marco Montemagno, italian technologist and journalist for SKY.
Who’s this guy? Can’t remember his name… hmmm…
Well, if he dyes his hair with black, he could resemble Al Gore… :-)

People.
The thing that everybody loved about Al Gore? His boots!
Final word: a great event, and I wish Good Luck to the italian Current_TV!

Wish I could’ve been there–love Al Gore and his boots ;)
i was there, but i can’t speak whit you.
Great shots, Simone! :)
Thanks guys!
I hope something can change, we need a breaktrough in the way people think about the world and information is the key.
Current_TV is very interesting, but I can’t figure out why they choosed Italy after US and UK, I mean more than 70% of italians do not use Internet and about 50% don’t have a PC.
Uhm, great photoshow! So..the question to Al Gore was so..bored. :-)
