    When the president becons, everyone listens. Such are the powers of the US head of state. So, we had a fine dinner featuring greats like Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook), Steve Jobs (Apple), Larry Ellison (Oracle), Eric Schmidt (Google),Carol Bartz, John Chambers (Cisco Systems), Dick Costolo (Twitter), Reed Hastings (Netflix) and other big names from the tech sphere. The topics discussed were employment and education of the country. There was also some serious talk about how the economy of the country can be put back on track.


    The White House has released some details of the conversation. The take away may be some advanced technology solutions in the spheres of education that can lead to better employment futures for students.
