Houston Mayor’s Telephone Conference for Bloggers
By Larry Hendrick | May 15, 2006
At 6:30 PM on Monday, May 15, 2006, Houston Mayor Bill White held a telephone conference with area bloggers. Also in attendance were Richard Lewis, CIO of Houston, Mustafa Temeez, and moderator Michael Garfield. About a dozen bloggers called into a number provided for the conference, and were allowed to ask questions of the participants.
The quality of the call isn’t the very best, but is good enough to to listen to. It took a few seconds to get the recorder started, so I missed the first ten seconds, and the audio runs just over forty minutes at 19MB.
Here is the download … enjoy.
