actually one thing we should be talking about is not the digital divide but digital divides in plural. there is international digital divide, rural divide. northern and southern and so on and then there's disadvantaged population that also in those device needs to be crossed in any way but they are growing around the world. >> you also rank the most affordable internet. yirndyinld, thenindia, and mauritius and disposable income is much less in india. >> metadata in income packets. one thing we should not forget around the world there are now as many mobile subscriptions as there are people but not equally distributed. approximately half the people have a mobile phone equal parkts withpackets over sms and data plans. >> jake and i were just talking about, a lot of us have data phones it doesn't necessarily lead to the same prosperity that you can gain by a are broadband connection and a computer. >> absolutely i agree. but you have to start somewhere. again there are about a half a bill of thebillion that lives outside of any reach whatsoever. there is a lot of piece to happen and some

tell me, can you describe what digital radio is and what the differences between fm and digital?asically uses the frequency spectrum's differently than analog radio. it allows you to put multiple channels on a narrower bandwidth to get more broadcast opportunities and more content in a smaller bandwidth and that is why part of the reason they are switching over. people in this country that use sirius xm radio is a broadcasting of that. norway will eliminate fm radio. they were the first country in europe to experiment with digital broadcasting. it has been around for 20 years. in a gallup survey this year they said about 50% of the population in norway have these radios. there are still more than 8 million units not able to receive digital audio signals. what that means is that as they make a decision to turn off fm radio, many people will be left with devices that cannot receive the digital audio and they will have no access to radio. cory: the way i think of it is an analog radio sort of blasts signals and you hope you are close enough for reception that you can pick it up and

with that we'll look at the profile of the digital divide in san francisco as of 2013. it found 88 percent of the respondents reported an internet connection at home but 6 percent of those were using slower speed dial up so it doesn't really qualify as broadband and pretty limited in terms of using full internet capacity and then the other 12 percent reported no internet connection at home and based on on the 2013 population of san francisco just over a hundred thousand people and interestingly that rate of non connectivity was about the same in the controller's 2011 survey so seems to be a persistent segment of the population that doesn't have the connectivity and san francisco, should point out is better than the

the e-book is coming into play now, digital printing, that type of thing. >> digital printing and the bookstores or e-books affected your business? >> they are just another part of the business. they are part of the business and we accept that and they service the customer in a different way than we do. we've been very fortunate, our book buying has increased what hasn't decreased our need as far as what the bushes looking for. >> so go to a low bit of the process and now a book moves through here once you've got the material. >> once the content is received a place or they decide what kind of interviews, what type of paper to print a. we'll schedule it put into the prepress department which within posed in such a manner that it comes right when you read. go to the place to put on the web press, offset press take that and we take signatures off the web press and take it to the bindery. basically from their we gather signatures, bite it case it in and ship it. >> and how many people will actually be in the process as it goes through the assembly line? >> all told in the manufacturing s

gamino and other stakeholders that ensures our digital divide and struggles for digital inclusion as strongly as we can. i think a divide that includes creative and strongest solutions should support digital inclusion in our city and action plan as well like we had in 2007 and few years ago. so i look forward to coordinating my efforts with supervisor mark far l who's* also been active in this looking at financing fur expanding our city's broadband network* and to facility these goals i directed the city attorney to form a digital inclusion task force so we can ensure senior organizations and low-income groups can have a say as our city develops information technology plan for the future. >> thank you supervisor mar. supervisor wiener. >> thuch madam president.* so i'll be supporting this today. but there are two items i want to raise. and expand the access to broadband, a really critical component is that the city actually have the infrastructure in place to do that. and i'll be honest that i think the city is falling behind. and i don't think our city government has done what it ne

couple of those things we've been significantly improving that network and also acknowledge that digital inclusion and access to the internet it's not sufficient to just turn on an access point or check the list so to speak and say yeah we have internet there and disregard the quality of it and the feedback i got yesterday i very much took seriously and i looked and we have completed significant upgrades to that network as recently as earlier this month and we have significant additional improvements scheduled for next week and so we'll see that significantly improve and i want the board of supervisors and the community at large to know we're very much cognizant of the fact that if it doesn't work well, it's as good or worse than not existing at all so i put that out there that we're very much focussed on that and it's an ongoing effort and the reality is we have to constantly manage that but it's an example or something for you all to consider as we go down this path that even our current relatively small sf wifi foot print requires maintenance ongoing and support to address questions a

peter: can you give an example of how we are you just -- how we are using digital health today? dr. blum: traditionally, if we were worried about your heart rhythm or your blood pressure, you would come to the office and get an ekg and we would take your blood pressure and we would try to make dedication adjustments based on that. but it is kind of silly if you think about that, because you live your life and you are going to your cardiologist and your primary care dr. and they see you one time a year, but these are things that are happening every single day. now we have technology that can look at your blood rate continuously, look at your heart rate continuously, and send that up to the cloud, and we know this thing is changing in you even before you notice. or you can be telling us, all i have something very terrible going on with my heart rhythm, and then we can look at it and say, oh there is nothing, so you don't have to come into the office. kind of like a problem that you have with your car and you experience that problem and you take it in and it never does anything wrong a

i am not sure how i feel about a digital. how would a computer based version of me even come to exist? it does creep some people out. anyone that has kids that plays video games see these are becoming cinematic in quality. the computers are making maps of our language as well. if you saw the jeopardy contest that was the first time that many people in the field realize that computers can talk to us by the end of this decade. and in full language sentences and that's a pretty reasonable prediction, they won't be very small, but they will be able to converse with you. and at that point, it's very obvious to see that you can have something that actually has a simulation of you as well. something that -- >> so the conversation is going to be improving but what kinds of things might my cyber self-do for me. >> well, it is going to build happens. it is going to be building maps of your values, of what you care about, your interests, your goals. what your plans are. and when i'm busy, my cyber twin could take the phone. be my phone

would have had a very slow ad driven internet service for everyone want to talk about the core of digital inclusion and the core is the same as the core of transportation inclusion was in the past century. what we're talking about is much like the internet -- i mean the interstate highway is highway system and road system that got built in the 20th century built by governmentals so that all businesses and individuals as long as they could afford a cheap clunker car could travel anywhere they wanted in the country created the biggest business boom this nation has ever seen to create a public network of roads and now we're in the 21 st century where the key to including low income people and most importantly san francisco in this tough economy -- we need the city to build its own fiber network if chat anoogo can do every resident for 20 bucks a month for fiber we can certainly do that in san francisco it will pay it back very easily so this is about digital inclusion is just like the highway system we need to build the 21 st century reasonable century road of fiber for all citizens of the c

records that have not been digitized -- the majority of records have not been digitized because there are too many. freedman's bureau records have not been digitized, we are on microfilm and that is the only way to research them. to go to the particular state or you have ancestors and narrow it down on the office that has jurisdiction over that county and scroll through the microfilm. at some point we hope the records can be digitized. freedman's bank records are digitized at this time so you do not have to go to microfilm. anytime you are in any national archives facility, you have free access to all of these independent sites that have digitized records. if you do not have a subscription with ancestry.com or with heritage quest, i think family search available to anyone without subscription, but definitely ancestry. anytime you are within any of our facilities, you have free access on public access computers. you can go on ancestry. if you want to research freedman's bank you can do on our computers and do the research you would like to do on those particular computers. >> all that

we want to map the global economy digitally.would require a profile for every member of the global workforce all 3 billion plus people, a profile for every company in the world. there are 70 million companies in the world. we want a digital representation of every job in the world. we would like there to be a digital representation of every skill required to obtain those opportunities and those jobs. presents for every university and higher education organization in the world that offers the ability to acquire those skills to obtain those jobs. we want to make it easy for every individual, every company, every university to share their professionally relevant knowledge in the event they would like to do so. we want to allow capital, all forms of capital and human capital, to flow to where it can best be leveraged and in doing so, the hope is that we can lift and transform the global economy. cory: is that all? that's enormous, jeff. it is wonderfully ambitious. jeff: it is straight it is something we have been talking about for

digital and all that. what has been your experience here with the number of books you've been producing other the last few years? >> guest: well fortunately, obviously, when the e-book first came out, we were doing trip -- they were doing triple digit growth and we were doing double digit decline. we're seeing that level off. fortunately for berryville graphics, we basically maintained, you know well over 100 million books a year, and i think for the most part, you know each our competitors would probably say they're not seeing any major dip in their volume. c-span: how far out does a publisher come to you and say i've got a book that i want you to print? >> guest: if it's a large print and it's, you know a bestseller that they think is going to be a bestseller, we might get some advance notice and a preschedule. because it's a large quantity. other than that, you know, it's not a huge amount of time ahead, you know, they can be put it in six weeks or eight weeks something like that, and we would be, you k

we've been seeing digital as an end instead of a means. we've been insisting the digital communications are a passing fad in some instances, including at the postal service early on. anyway, that's all sorted out now. we are after all atomic structures and packages don't beam themselves off the assembly line to your home. so digital matter streams are finally atomically incorrect. operating as the network matters stream. so know how to optimally map citizens to those data streams and to the internet of things. and to network matter streams. the postal service needs to continue to integrate its network matter stream with its users' data streams to enable e-commerce, e-health, mobile banking, e-government and soon e-learning. we also have the huge burden of the universal service obligation that you've heard about today. it would be great if we could turn that liability into a wonderful asset for americans, and for the postal service. we need to understand the impact of digital communications on the uso. we shouldn't be fearing and viewing th

we want to map the global economy digitally.t would require a profile for every member of the global workforce, all 3 billion-plus people, a profile for every company in the world, over 700 million in the world, a digital representation of every job in the world, full-time, part-time, for-profit volunteer we would like there to be a digital representation of every skill required to obtain those jobs a presence for every university in higher education that offers the ability to acquire those skills to obtain those jobs, and then we want to make it easy for every individual company and university to share their knowledge in the event that they would like to do so. we want to take a step back and allow capital all forms of capital, intellectual, working, and human capital, to close to where it can best be leveraged. the hope is to lift and transform the global economy. cory: is that all? that is enormous, wonderfully ambitious. >> it is, and that is something that we have been talking about for years. when we first started talking

at some point, we hope these can be digitized. bank records are digitized at this time for the freedmen's bank. you can go online and find them. when you're in one of these facilities, you have access to these independent sites that have digitized our records. if you do not have a subscription with ancestry.com or heritage quest, i think family search is close to those without subscriptions. definitely ancestry. when you are present in our facilities, you have access to our public access computers. you can go on ancestry. if you want to research fr eedman's bank you can go in and do the research you need to do. >> provide information for the general public on what to do people know they can go to the website [inaudible] damani: honestly, from the feedback we have received from customers, our website is difficult to navigate. we have received complaints about that. if you stay on there and play around with it, you can finally find what it is you are looking for. [laughter] for the most part on the front page of the website, they ar

, we have real opportunity lu digital -- through digital learning to connect finally the k-12 system with the higher education system. students now are taking 30-60 credit hours in high school. so the first thing about your daughter is she'll probably only be in high school for a couple of years and will be starting college much earlier. i do think that delivery systems through dingingal mechanisms -- digital mechanisms will help us better connect high school to college. it is also still the case that so many of our students come to college totally unprepared to do college work. will the common core or higher standards solve this? we know not yet. but i can imagine that our delivery system would be immensely enhanced if we could enable a faster pace through developmental education to college-level courses using digital delivery systems. once we get students, the cost savings, i think, are not on the side of how much or how few a number of faculty members we will have, but how the student uses his or her time to get to the credentialing they're seeking. so what we use the term hybrid

there is no mention of a digital divide and people who might not have access to the digital future. i think some estimates show that it might be as many as 100,000 people with no access and 50,000 that still are using dial up and many with not a lot of speed that others have. in your plan what is being done to address that digital divide that perhaps 200,000 people in our city. is high speed internet access available at homes and what are we doing to make sure that people aren't left behind and large number of people in our neighborhoods? >> thank you for the question, supervisor mar. there is a section of the ict plan that is connectivity plan, and that connectivity plan lays out our plans for fiber network build outs, the big ones, those are very well flushed out in terms of their variables in their details. then there are two other sections that are sf wifi in the expansion of the public actions and the call to fiber around the home and gig speed to the homes. those two sections have a lot of dynamics to be flushed out. iteration two of the connectivity plan we are working toward

digital printing, that kind of thing. c-span: digital printing and the bookstores, how have they affected your business? >> guest: they are just another part of the business they are part of the business and we accept that, they serve us as the customer in a different way than we do. we have been very fortunate they have never decreased our need as far as what the publisher is looking for. c-span: go through the process of how a book moves through here. >> guest: the customer places the order, they decide what kind of material they want to use the we schedule it and we put it into the department that will then pose in such a manner so that it comes out so that you can read it. we put it on the press, we read it, we take that and we take it to the binary and basically from there we gather signatures and we ship it. c-span: how many people will actually be in this process as it goes through the assembly line? >> guest: probably 30. if you took just the one look. c-span: are there a lot of other competitions? >> guest: there

ideas is to be never successful in the digital age.ink that it was an unfortunate approach to protest. we certainly have better ways than to sort of making apiece of theatre against george schultz and madeleine albright. henry kyser there. and you flow. are ways to know ones feeling about kissinger's decisions. do i not think that he was a war monger if i did, i would hope that i would find a better way to fry to convince others of that than doing that i think, not very useful by the of theatre. and i did thank you know. i did admire. and i read the testimony of had notary kess ger. if you are looking for the books to read and if you want to understand kissinger, where is he coming from. read a world order. the great book that was of last year. you would say he is a war monger. is he a structure of thought that will lead to his sense of what will make for a stable and good order. and you can disagree with it. and then push back in an interelectricly. in that of which i found disturbing. david is calling in from st. thomas virgin island

once you codify it, you can digitize it. once you digitize it, you can make a copy or 10 copies or 100 million copies. each of those copies have three very interesting characteristics. they can be made at almost zero cost. they're perfect replicas of the original. and they can be transmitted anywhere on the planet, more-or-less, instantaneously. free, perfect and instant are three adjectives we didn't use to describe most goods and services historically, but they're standard for digital goods, and they lead to some weird and sometimes wonderful economics. they can lead to a lot of bounty, but they can also lead to winner take most markets. if you codify tax preparation, you don't need hundreds of thousands of human tax preparers each serving a local market. a few good tax programs, maybe one or a few can cover a big chunk of the market. of course, as marc-andreason said this isn't just in a few obscure corners of the economy. software is eating the world. it's coming to retailing, to finance, manufacturing, to media, more an

many of them are trading at single-digit, low double-digit pe's, price to earning ratios. the really big ones like oracle and others are trading at single digit price-earnings. if you are one of these big sort of technology conglomerates and you are in all in these different types of business, you have competition from all these new startups. emily: would apple, google, amazon, microsoft fall into the category of "every?" mark: obviously, some of the new companies, including salesforce, google, facebook, and others, are growing very fast. i think a lot of companies will get larger in this period. if they are more than 20 years old, they would benefit from breaking up. many of them will be forced to do it if they don't do it voluntarily. emily: it is not a sign of defeat? it's not a sign that innovation is dead or lost? mark: it is a sign of change, evolution. the industry is changing. it is a sign that the technology is changing. it is a sign that there is the opportunity to do more and better if you are smaller and more nimble. the real test for technology companies is, h

digital espionage extends into the business world.know that chinese hackers continued breach -- continue to obridge corporate networks to get their own companies a global advantage in the economy. in states like iran, they have targeted major u.s. banks to shut down websites and restrict americans ability to access their bank accounts. make no mistake, such attacks are costing americans their time, money, and jobs. keith alexander, the former director of the national security agency, describe cyber espionage and loss of american intellectual property as "the greatest transfer of wealth in human history." but the threat extends beyond the industrial engine that drives our economy, to the critical infrastructure that supports our way of life. our adversaries are hard at work refining cyber capabilities that can shut down critical infrastructure, and they want to use these tools to threaten our leaders and intimidate our people in both times of peace and conflict. a major cyber attack on our gas pipelines or power grid, for instance, cou
