Scottish freelancer/podcaster Ewan Spence is one of the most visible guests at LeWeb3. His traditional kilt and cardigan, as well as his Internet literacy, help him get interviews from the most important speakers of the two-day event. For him, it seems as easy as a mouse click.
“This is the third time I’ve attended this conference”, he told us in the Networking Dock Tuesday night. “I know Loic Le Meur and some other high-profile nerds who are present here in Paris. So my job is getting easier and easier.”
Tonight, Ewan goes back home with four interviews broadcast for the BBC. He also came to Paris to do some reporting for British Internet reviews. But he is mostly interested in testing some of the forthcoming most-dowloaded software -just like a little child who is given a new toy.
