Vint Cerf on the end of his chairmanship of ICANN

Vint Cerf – often referred to as the father of the Internet – is about to step down as chair of ICANN as he has served the maximum allowed terms. ICANN is the body that governs the basic functions of the Internet.

His YouTube interview is worth a look by anyone who wants to know what ICANN does, or wants to participate in ICANN. He talks about ICANN’s role, why its role is a challenge, and what kind of people it needs as directors and other volunteers.

If you want to be on the board, you have a few days left to apply.
