==David Weinberger==
 
David Weinberger, PhD, is one of the world's most respected thought leaders at the intersection of technology, business, and society. He is the author of ''Everything Is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder'', which charts how as business, politics, science, and media move online, the rules of the physical world—in which everything has a place—are upended, and the critically acclaimed book ''Small Pieces Loosely Joined'', a highly original and accessible reflection on the impact of the Internet on human behavior. He holds a PhD in philosophy from the University of Toronto and taught philosophy for five years at New Jersey's Stockton State College.

==Kam Woods==
Kam is currently developing modified open source digital forensics tools for digital archivists. He works with archivists, librarians, forensics researchers, and other development groups to identify core needs in analyzing and preparing digital content for preservation -- specifically needs that can be addressed using existing high-performance forensic technologies (with a little tweaking). He is also interested in developing datasets and teaching technologies to support education and professional training in digital archiving. He gave a great talk at 2014 ALA & I'll bet would have some great tech & social insights for Code4Lib. [http://www.digpres.com/ Kam Woods]
